167 - "Zero Hour" by Ray Bradbury

Undercooked Analysis

The Year of Pulp continues as David, Kaela and Abysmii take a crack at a story in the public domain from a young Ray Bradbury. We get a vision of a optimistic future that never happened, and discuss the sad lack of hopeful sci-fi these days and the fears of the time possibly channeled through the story’s lens.

First published in Planet Stories, Fall 1947. Read it on Project Gutenberg here.

Creative Horror asks our listeners to check out Operation Olive Branch to see how to aid in humanitarian efforts in Palestine.
