JUST POSTED: StarTalk Radios “A COSMOS Conversation with Steven Soter” with cohost Chuck Nice ***Steven Soter is co-writer with Ann Druyan of Cosmos*** Listen now at startalkradio.net/show/cosmos-conversation-with-steven-soter Also Listen on iTunes, Stitcher or SoundCloud From Jeffrey Simons write-up on the StarTalk Website: They talk about the making of the show, from the challenges of creating for broadcast TV (commercials!) to how the show’s presentation of evolution and the age of the universe generated a controversial response from creationists and others. You’ll find out how they choose which science to include, why there’s so much history in the series, and why they use animation to illustrate it. Steven also shares stories about working with Carl and Ann Druyan, the surprising derivation of the phrase “billions and billions” and what Carl originally wanted the show’s final episode to be about rather than the now classic episode on nuclear war and the survival of humanity.
