The Matrix w/Matt Ruff

For this episode we are joined by one of the PNW's most accomplished horror-sci-fi authors in Matt Ruff, author of the acclaimed 𝘓𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘵 𝘊𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘺, to debate a venerated classic of American cinema in 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘹.The tentacles in Ruff's world may be less robotic...the systems of control more cosmic in nature than in 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘹, but that certainly doesn't make them any less terrifying. Perhaps, however, it will lend him some credence with the cosmic power represented through the dice gods. We won't know until the dice come to rest.Psssstttt... have you liked, commented, subscribed, and shared? Well, don't worry... It's not too late! DO IT NOW! Also, have you checked out all of Ruff’s work? You'll need to do that as well, or frankly, you're depriving yourself of some truly awesome Cosmic horror fiction!
