Every Single Sci-Fi Film Ever: Where Sci-Fi Meets Film & Culture
This is THE person listeners want to produce the best sci-fi podcast out there. Here’s her quote: “When I watched Terminator 2 at the age of 13, I really wanted to be like Sarah Connor: Strong, resilient, and defiant. I despise the gym, but have gone regularly to the gym most of my life because Sarah Conner would not want to see me getting weak for the impending apocalypse! I must not let her down. But realistically, it seems like a lot of hard work. I would much rather be a captain or crew member on a Federation starship or perhaps Doc Emmett Brown from Back to the Future. Something where the adventures involve fewer death machines chasing me incessantly.”
That person is Ayesha Khan, creator and host of Every Single Sci-Fi Film Ever, whose continuing mission is to explore strange old films, seek out the experts, and boldly bring them to you.
The Every Single Sci-Fi Film Ever* podcast, which began in March 2024, looks back at more than a century of films, beginning in 1902 and working towards the future. Each episode focuses on a film, director, or theme and brings in experts to discuss its history, politics, and influences.
“We began our journey with an episode dedicated to discovering what science fiction actually is. Then we move to Paris, 1902, to watch and discuss the first sci-fi film ever: Le Voyage Dans La Lune. Occasionally, we will take some detours,” says Ayesha Khan.
