056 - Pilgrims with M.R. Leonard

This episode is different from the typical Weird Reads episodes. First, I welcome a science fiction author onto the show, M.R. Leonard. Second, M.R. Leonard is a practicing Catholic, and his book, Pilgrims, is a first-contact story about Catholic aliens. You read that correctly—Catholic aliens. This doesn't necessarily make Pilgrims Christian science fiction. Listen in to see why. Also check out Michael's book, Pilgrims as it is a fascinating look into religion.

We also discuss a great deal of history, specifically Roman history, and a bit of astrophysics.
