Welcome to Science Fictions!
Yes, it's the name of Stuart's book. No, it's not a power grab.
Hello, beloved listeners. We finally changed the name of the podcast, as we said we would months ago. You should still be able to find us by going to the old URL, at least for a few months, as well as by going to sciencefictionspod.com (we hope).
Migrating the domain name is weirdly fiddly, though, so there’s a decent chance we’ve broken something – do let us know if so. We’ve left comments open to everyone for this post for that exact purpose.
We are also now a Works in Progress-branded podcast, again as mentioned before. But none of this changes anything from your perspective: we will continue to talk over each other and to giggle at the journal PNAS just as we ever did. You can go and enjoy the other Works in Progress podcasts here.
In the coming months, we hope to get some new and cooler branding, but to minimise your stress and confusion in this unsettling new environment, we’d start out with the same comforting logo with different words.
Right, that’s it. On to the future! Science Fictions Forever!


But The Studies Show was such a clever name!
Is there more to the story of why the name was changed? Was the old title contested intellectual property or something?
