Podcast #2: The Great Race for Earth

The Epic Universe podcast has grown in size with the addition of Derek Collins as co-host to Stephanie Police. The podcast will shift format away from the interview style of its initial launch into a discussion format.

"The goal was never for me to be a primary contributor," explains Lee Stephen. "It was meant to be about the fun of speculation, and obviously I can't really play a part of that. I can't speculate when I know what's coming."

The quest for the Epic podcast's launch has been a long one, according to Stephen, having been a behind-the-scenes effort as far back as this time last year. With Stephanie Police securely in the wings as primary host, the task of finding a partner became a priority. When the position was opened on the official Epic forums, it didn't take long for someone to step up to the plate. Derek Collins (Dercol's Goatee from the forums) will join Stephanie Police as personality and theorist.

While Stephen may occasionally partake in a show, the main goal will now be discussion of the series' various plots and intricacies. The first discussion podcast, launched today, revolves around the Great Race for Earth as it pertains to EDEN Command and the various alien species. Fans are encouraged to be caught up with the latest novel, Hero, before giving the show a listen. "The last thing we want is for the show to spoil anything, and while it isn't starting off very spoiler intense, you'll definitely have some mild spoilers here and there."

All fans are encouraged to participate in the podcast by sending questions, comments, and their own theories to Stephanie and Derek.
