It's the premiere of a brand-new show on The Fire and Water Podcast Network — literally! Join us for The Mirror Factory, a literary podcast hosted by Max Romero and featuring a different special guest on each episode. Guests will tell us about a favorite passage from a novel, novella, or short story — and why it means so much to them — and then give a special reading of that passage for listeners. In this first episode, Max explains why books are so important to him, why he could never destroy a book (except when he does), and how that makes him think of Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451." Then, Max reads a passage from this sci-fi classic that is both terrifying and, somehow, hopeful.

Robert, Nat, and Cody take a trip this episode into the dystopian future of Ray Bradbury's FAHRENHEIT 451 courtesy of Francois Truffaut's 1966 adaptation.
Phil & Matt talk about how the little Sanderson will soon be coming into the world. Matt recounts his most recent parenting class and shares his birthing plans. From that, Phil is reminded of his bachelor party and realizes that Matt has a deep-rooted shady Surrey side. The move is called the Surrey Shuffle, according to Matt. Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 (18:24) Matt & Phil deep dive into Ray Bradbury’s dystopian tale of a world obsessed with suppressing books. No spoiler alerts here, Matt & Phil tell all and reveal that Fahrenheit 451 is possibly more a tale about life than censorship of books. To follow along, read a few synopses of the book here and here. If you haven't read the book, don’t worry about it. Sit back, listen then tell us your thoughts on Bradbury’s oeuvre. Ray Bradbury narrated the book, which is fantastic! The audiobook can be found on YouTube, here. Recommendations Matt & Phil recommend to keep on reading! Concluding thought: If books could be seen as dangerous, podcasts must be incendiary. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Semi-Intellectual Musings on Twitter: @The_SIM_Pod Email Matt & Phil: semiintellectual@gmail.com Subscribe to the podcast: https://thesim.podbean.com/feed/ For full show notes: https://thesim.podbean.com/e/Ray-Bradburys-Fahrenheit-451 iTunes: https://goo.gl/gkAb6V Stitcher: https://goo.gl/PfiVWJ GooglePlay: https://goo.gl/uFszFq Please leave us a rating and a review, it really helps the show!
