The Mythcreant Podcast dabbles into the depths of worldbuilding. Emily discusses how she starts the process for new stories, and Mike puts some of his military history knowledge to work in spec fic. Plus examples from Star Trek and Discworld, laser catapults, and a couple of other tangentially related short topics.
