Summary

On this special bonus Pride Month episode, our hosts, Chris and Amy, read All Systems Red, the first book in The Murderbot Diaries. Murderbot may not be a human, but oh gosh is it relatable! With equal parts humor and peril, this is a story for everyone. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll cringe, you’ll even clench your teeth! And all Murderbot will want to do is continue watching Sanctuary Moon. But of course, the humans are doing something to get themselves in trouble. UGH. What’s new, honestly? Thank you to Kevin MacLeod for the use of our theme song, 'Werq.' You can find more of their music on https://www.incompetech.com/ .
