About this listen

This time we react to a fascinating article from Strange Horizons, which claims that all SF writers are... historians!

You can read the article here: https://strangehorizons.com/wordpress/non-fiction/why-all-science-fiction-and-fantasy-writers-are-historians/

Related to this topic, we also read a delightful historical SF short story by David Brin, "A Professor at Harvard". Find it here: https://davidbrin.blogspot.com/2026/02/a-little-sci-fi-tale-to-boost-your.html

We also have a fiendish quiz sent in by a listener, and our usual round-up of SF past, present and future.
