Martian pronunciation can be tricky if you didn't grow up with it.

2024-11-28 04:30:35 +0000 UTCnow that's the kind of commitment to the bit we expect from Revolutions!

2024-11-19 04:26:08 +0000 UTCIt would be really funny if in a later episode you get "corrected" by a viewer in your pronunciation of one of the smaller figures in the historiography of the Martian revolution and have to make a correction on the following episode. Or apologize in advance for possibly "butchering" one of the names. Would be very on theme with the series. I imagine even in the future historiographers will still be mispronouncing key figures names lol

2024-11-11 19:42:16 +0000 UTCGreat stuff. Listening for the historical parallels is both fun and enlightening. I'm curious, though, about your sci-fi inspirations. I think I hear parallels to Red Mars, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, and the Expanse series.

2024-11-11 18:49:41 +0000 UTCI was a bit sceptical of this series when you first started posting it, but I'm glad I stuck with it. This serves as a really excellent commentary on and synthesis of your other Revolutions series; so many of the same ideas and themes are woven into the narrative. (eg 'Every revolution is also a civil war', mentioned and neatly demonstrated in this episode). It's like you've let your brain run the same algorithm you use for historical revolutions, but pointed it at a fictional concept instead of a body of sources. The result is unique; as a sci-fi fan, I don't know of anything else quite like it. Kudos!
