Our Opinions Are Correct

We hate the entire concept of canon! Who cares if a fictional story really "happened"? NONE OF THEM HAPPENED, IT'S FICTION. And screw "the canon." Plus we learn all about the scary world of tsunamis in lakes, rivers and even creeks... ouropinionsarecorrect.libsyn.com/we-dont-give-a…

Forget space captains and superheroes — in our latest episode, we celebrate the plumbers, cleaners and infrastructure workers who save the day. Plus we talk to @arielwaldman about living in Antarctica and studying the humble-yet-glorious tardigrade! ouropinionsarecorrect.com/shownotes/2024…

Doctor Who is back, and we're obsessed! In our latest episode, we geek out about how this show has managed to stay awesome for * 60 years *. Hint: There are some key lessons that other venerable series could look to. (*cough* Star Trek *cough*) ouropinionsarecorrect.libsyn.com/episode-143-wh…

@auner01 @JohnsonJeffro NGL at first I wasn't sure if you meant Edgar Rice or William S. --- both of them were super influential!

@Joi_the_Artist @jessiegender @OOACpod was talking about Galactica and described it, paraphrasing here, as a great scifi series intertwined with a flawed/underdeveloped fantasy series, and that really helped me better understand my feelings about the series.

The best scifi/pop culture commentary podcast out there! Do your mind a favor and listen and drop some bucks on their Patreon. If you want to master the ancient art of joyful negativity, go and join.

Our latest episode is about zines. They started as a key part of science fiction culture and became a punk rock staple — but what are zines today? To find out we talk to Lynn Peril (Mystery Date) and Lawrence Lindell (Blackward)! ouropinionsarecorrect.libsyn.com/episode-141-zi…

@RaeSwabey OMG thanks so much! Have an awesome weekend...

Recently, I’ve been binge listening @OOACpod, aka Our Opinions Are Correct, a podcast by Charlie Jane Anders and Annalee Newitz. Highly recommended for sci fi fans, and for people who just enjoy thinking about stuff. open.spotify.com/show/5E5bA91kp…

Tech leaders claim to love science fiction, but they don't understand it — and this has real-world consequences. Find out more as we end our "Silicon Valley vs SF" series. Plus we talk to @jovialjoy about A.I. ethics and her new book, Unmasking A.I.! ouropinionsarecorrect.libsyn.com/episode-140-wh…

Had to wear my BSG shirt to listen to @OOACpod’s episode about the 20 years of one of my favorite TV shows.

Our latest episode is about how to write violence in your fiction -- from fight scenes to big battles. How do you show the cost of violence, and make it count? We talked to @FondaJLee and @laurenbeukes at @RoseCityCC <3 ouropinionsarecorrect.libsyn.com/episode-139-ho…

@Smusma Thank you!!!! <3

They done it again!!! Annalee and Charlie Jane showing us how to engage with pop culture on a thoughtful AND enthusiastic way. Not to be miss!

@JeniverseAbr Thanks for sharing! <3

The latest @OOACpod makes me want to rewatch the Battlestar Galatica reboot although I know some parts will make me mad. I'm forever an Athena/Helo shipper though. ouropinionsarecorrect.libsyn.com/episode-138-ba…

The Battlestar Galactica reboot launched twenty years ago, and it changed television forever. But how does it hold up? To find out, Charlie Jane went back and rewatched every single episode. ouropinionsarecorrect.libsyn.com/episode-138-ba…

@tomcoates Wait, what? We said it was off the air by 2003, which is accurate.

@OOACpod Omigod, loving the most recent episode but GASP you were dismissive of Farscape which is f***ing excellent and deserves more love!

Our latest episode is about creativity: how did the "Death of the Author" change the way we look at writing? Will A.I. turn our brains into apps? Plus we talk to @mamohanraj about using A.I. in the classroom... ouropinionsarecorrect.libsyn.com/episode-137-th…
