Chat with Miles Greb about Dune and more: After over two years, comic book author, atheist, skeptic and feminist Miles Greb joins us once again! We talk about the Dune trailer, what the movie means for the franchise, and a little bit of 'what they got wrong/right'. Interestingly the trailer used 'crusade' in a scene where he should have said 'ghost wind of jihad' and we're curious if the movie makers know the true story of Dune. We also talk a bit about the books Miles has created and you should check them all out: https://www.afterthegoldrush.space/
Also, if you don't know what a 'Dune' is: https://youtu.be/n9xhJrPXop4
Keep your eyes peeled, Miles has a kickstarter going live on October 1st that collects the first volume of After the Gold Rush, and it's something that you need to have. Need.
