If a man would rather listen to a stranger than to his own minister, the minister has reason to ask what the stranger is supplying.
It may be that the young man is foolish. It may also be that he is hungry, and the table in his own house is bare.

Today, @anduriltech and @qualcomm announced a new laptop that will eventually be 100% made in America, a “first step” toward creating a market for U.S.-manufactured components and total technological self-sufficiency.
Building computers in America should be a matter of “national pride,” says @PalmerLuckey.

Happy to announce the release of the SECOND Episode of Splendid Sam! (delayed a month because I have irons in WAY too many fires right now...)
Long story short here, Splendid Sam is a radio serial within the universe of After Moses that gets mentioned in at least 4 of the 6 books. With the Kickstarter that I ran last year for the audiobook, I promised to release 2 episodes. Here is the first of those two! The goal was to create something very 1930s or 40s. A pulp hero. A side-kick. In universe commercials.
First tweet has compressed classic radio audio of both episodes. Second tweet will have uncompressed modern audio. It's approaching an hour of content so bookmark until you have the time.
Big thanks to @sonofsonnet to doing the narration and really giving it his all. Especially the lava monster! He nailed everything I asked for him. Hard working guy.
Next up is @randymccarten. He's the narrator for the After Moses audiobooks, but given his long history in radio, I had to have him do the in-universe commercials for me and he did NOT disappoint.
And then there's @m_anthonyharris. I knew he had done some ambient albums, so I asked him to do some synthy sci-fi back ground music to match the vibe. Once again. Totally worth.
Finally I asked @VenomWalter_art to do the backing ground art and characters (I'll post a clean version beneath so you can see his final work). He nailed the pulp sci-fi hero with art deco robot vibe I was hoping for. So a lot of talented guys worked on this. I did the easy part and just wrote the episode. 😅
There are two versions
