(Interview starts at 12:00!) Ohhh yes, folks... this one is the Big Mac: Best-selling and critically-acclaimed sci-fi and fantasy author Arian Tchaikovsky is in fact here on the BizzleCast! An amazing way to launch the podcast side of our 2022 here at BizzleCast 2.0 (more on that later), I was and remain so honored to be able to talk with Adrian for so long and in such depth. Did I mention long? Well, Adrian stayed on for over two hours (!) to talk about not only his own works but a bunch of shared nerdy interests including Dune, Warhammer, D&D and more. This one had to be a miniseries, and while I’ll be releasing the full 2+ hour podcast as a single file as well, for the official Part 1 of my discussion with Adrian, we are jumping right into his own leap into science fiction for the first time after many years as a fantasy writer. That first book was, of course, CHILDREN OF TIME which catapulted him into new strata of fame, recognition, and exposure. So, for this Part 1 we are going to start in the period of 2015-16 leading up to the release of CHILDREN and some of the great works he’s done since, as well as an extended talk about the weird, wild world of user reviews when it comes to writers, and in truly Bizzle fashion somehow getting some of my own film theory in (1/3 2/3 Split anyone??) as a comparison of where popular art is in 2022 globally. I hope you enjoy this one at least 12% as much as I was thrilled to do it, because that’s already a huge amount of fun, insight, and humor from Adrian himself. Thank you Adrian, thank you BizzleCast listeners old and new, and let’s have a great 2022 after this very auspicious beginning to it.
