Here’s our epic bull session about “2001: A Space Odyssey” – nearly as long as the movie itself (though not quite). It probably would have been a little shorter had we not gotten sidetracked by a shared obsession with childhood model-building. But, much like “2001” itself, the journey is the destination.

It was great to reunite with my cousin, and Roy’s lifelong friend, Joe Metz, now living in Utah, whose favorite film “2001” is.

Speaking of epic conversations, Roy’s special guest tomorrow night will be director and writer Ralph Senensky. Senensky will talk about his extensive body of work for television, amassed over the span of a quarter century. Of particular interest to sci-fi fans will be his anecdotes about having directed six classic “Star Trek” episodes.

Tune in for a chat with this “Enterprising” director. The next Roy’s Tie-Dye Sci-Fi Corner will be livestreamed on Facebook, this Sunday evening at 7:00 EDT!
