Episode 1: The Reset

from Richardson's Rubicon Hosted by John Richardson

In this season opener, John strips the podcast back to its core purpose. The show drops the scattered topics and shifts hard toward speculative fiction, worldbuilding, and the craft behind imagined futures. John explains why the old format was unfocused, why this reset is necessary, and why writers must confront their own blind spots if they want their stories to work. He outlines the new plan for the season, including interviews with speculative fiction writers, honest discussions about his own writing process, and live call in sessions for anyone building worlds or wrestling with ideas. This episode sets the tone for a sharper, more deliberate, and far more demanding season.
