After the success of the Ministry, and to keep their fans going until the next novel comes out, they’ve also started a Kickstarter called The Ministry Initiative. This will fund two related projects: a short story anthology and an RPG. And as if that weren’t enough, we also talk about Archer, librarians vs. archivists, and why NO ONE has control of the sound board after tonight. http://www.scifisaturdaynight.com/podcast/talkcast185.mp3Download | Open Player in New Window
