What makes science fiction & fantasy great?
Step onto the shop floor where imagination meets machinery. The Science Fiction & Fantasy Factory is where writers, artists, filmmakers, and dreamers reveal how the genre gets made—story by story, world by world, effect by effect.
Join your host Mookie Spitz to talk about the craft and chaos behind your favorite futures: from character arcs to cosmic engines, from special effects to imaginary and planetary-scale ideas. Think of the show as a behind-the-scenes pass to the creative assembly line that keeps science fiction & fantasy alive and thriving.
Whether you're a creator, a fan, a marketer, or just someone who gets a rush from the smell of rocket fuel and ink, dragon breath and demons, you’ll find your tribe here.
Get ready for The Science Fiction & Fantasy Factory—where we build enthralling realities, one episode at a time.
