  • SFATW - 004 - Luxembourg - Ralph 124c 41+ - Hugo Gernsback

    SFATW - 004 - Luxembourg - Ralph 124c 41+ - Hugo Gernsback

    An awesome chat with Seth Heasley of the Hugo's There Podcast https://hugospodcast.com

    Seth is a big hitter in the Science Fiction podcast world, so it was a huge treat to get Seth on to talk about this book, as Hugo Gernsback is the man who the Hugo awards are names after! So he was a perfect guest.

    I did mention 'The Terrible Book Club' who also reviewed this book (https://terriblebookclub.com/episodes/ralph-124c-41-a-romance-of-the-year-2660-by-hugo-s1!b106b)

    His is the drawing of Ralph, Seth and I chatted about (https://scifiaroundtheworld.blogspot.com/2023/01/luxembourg-ralph-124c-41-hugo-gernsback.html).

    And, as always here's my blog website. Feel free to contact me with any suggestions for books, or if you would like to be a guest on the podcast and chat about a book that isn't from the US or England.

    Cheers
