Elysia and Luke return with weekly coverage of a sure-to-be-epic season 3 of the dystopic scifi thriller Silo, releasing on Apple TV starting July 3. The show that put our podcast on the map (and after which it is named) returns for a third season exploring the origins of the Silo system, adapting Shift, the second book in the trilogy – and we&#39;ll be giving you both the book-reader comparisons (without spoiling ahead) and non-book-reader tinfoil hat theories about what&#39;s really going on.*In between episodes and seasons of Silo, join us for an in-depth dive into Frank Herbert&#39;s novel Dune and all of the adaptations of that story.Using the most famous science-fiction book ever written as our base, we&#39;re looking at the choices made in different times by different creators: How does one adapt a story that&#39;s been deemed unadaptable – what worked, and what didn&#39;t? And how does each attempt leave a deeper understanding of this rich galaxy of politics, philosophy, and lore?*Also, browse our feed for our in-depth coverage of Apple TV’s dystopic scifi thriller Silo&#39;s first two seasons, from two different perspectives: book reader Elysia, and show-only Luke, with spoilers only up to the episode discussed and equivalent parts of the book.Plus past holiday specials like the endless variations of A Christmas Carol as well as It&#39;s a Wonderful Life / Knife, The Craft films, and Edgar Allan Poe and The Fall of the House of Usher coverage – not to mention our coverage of both seasons of Beacon 23 – Hugh Howey&#39;s other TV adaptation.

For this special Silo season 3 bonus episode, Elysia is joined by Silo series book author Hugh Howey and Silo TV showrunner Graham Yost to discuss the tricky process of TV-making and adaptation – from why worldbuilding details were changed, to how key scenes came together, to how Peter Gabriel won himself a spot in Stensen&#39;s Ark.This episode avoids future book spoilers as usual, and saves season 4 discussion until the end of the conversation – listen to the intro for a more detailed spoiler warning.Links:<ul><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Yq7dvVINpY" rel="nofollow">Silo season 4 trailer</a></li><li><a href="https://books.apple.com/us/book/silo/id6783494786" rel="nofollow">&#34;The Mystery of the Pez&#34; TV tie-in short story</a></li><li><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/SiloSeries/comments/14otzcj/siloseries_ama_with_author_and_executive_producer/?share_id=zTWB-Z8fLT7h5g690F3XS&utm_content=2&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_source=share&utm_term=1" rel="nofollow">Hugh Howey&#39;s season 3 Reddit AMA</a></li><li><a href="https://www.rekhagarton.com/silo" rel="nofollow">Silo photography by Rekha Garton</a></li></ul> Stay tuned to this feed for a season wrap episode (<a href="https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?fs=1&tf=cm&to=WoolShiftDustPodcast%40gmail.com" rel="nofollow">send us your feedback!</a>) + bonus separate breakdown of the S4 trailer.

At long last, the original Dune novel breakdown series begins in earnest! Following up on their episode about the author Frank Herbert and creation of the book, this episode dives into the beginning of the story itself:After an opening discussion of the significance and nuance of the overall story with David from the Lorehounds, where they lay the foundations for key vocabulary and themes (00:26:11), including the complexities of Paul Atreides, the balance of powers in the universe, and how the timeline of Dune relates to our own, Elysia and Luke break down the first 10 chapters of the novel (00:48:20), the first half of Book 1 (of 3): &#34;Dune&#34; – just through the hunter-seeker incident. Warning: We do spoil key plot points in this book, and certain plot points of the follow-up books. Frank Herbert front-loaded those spoilers into this opening section himself, so we&#39;re pointing them out and talking about how it all connects.

A Christmas Carol Twists, part 2: Magoo, Ameri-Canadianacana, Hallmark, & Christmas Karma

https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/pod-public-media-files/2025/12/24/18/b834513a-a8c6-472f-87af-551fde8e0687_dark_christmas_carols_2025_rtp.mp3

Elysia and Luke&#39;s A Christmas Carol discussion takes a darker turn in this lore-down between the Guy Pearce-starring, BBC co-produced 2019 version – which adds some grimer touches to Scrooge&#39;s tale – and the 1964 Twilight Zone-like variation created to advertise the importance of the UN at a time when the US and world in general were on the brink of one war and fully entering another. They&#39;ll give you all the history, psychology, and sociology you need to get more out of these two tales of existential dread. Note: Apologies for the mic issues in this episode, but we hope you enjoy the history and psychology deep dives!

A Christmas Carol Classics, take 2: Seymour Hicks, The Stingiest Man, & Jim Carrey

the adaptation analysis podcast

Elysia and Luke return with weekly coverage of a sure-to-be-epic season 3 of the dystopic scifi thriller Silo , releasing on Apple TV starting July 3. The show that put our podcast on the map (and after which it is named) returns for a third season exploring the origins of the Silo system, adapting Shift , the second book in the trilogy – and we'll be giving you both the book-reader comparisons (without spoiling ahead) and non-book-reader tinfoil hat theories about what's really going on.

*

In between episodes and seasons of Silo , join us for an in-depth dive into Frank Herbert's novel *Dune* and all of the adaptations of that story.

Using the most famous science-fiction book ever written as our base, we're looking at the choices made in different times by different creators: How does one adapt a story that's been deemed unadaptable – what worked, and what didn't? And how does each attempt leave a deeper understanding of this rich galaxy of politics, philosophy, and lore?

*

Also, browse our feed for our in-depth coverage of Apple TV’s dystopic scifi thriller *Silo* 's first two seasons, from two different perspectives: book reader Elysia, and show-only Luke, with spoilers only up to the episode discussed and equivalent parts of the book.

Plus past holiday specials like the endless variations of *A Christmas Carol* as well as *It's a Wonderful Life / Knife* , *The Craft* films, and *Edgar Allan Poe* and *The Fall of the House of Usher* coverage – not to mention our coverage of both seasons of *Beacon 23* – Hugh Howey's other TV adaptation.
