Jared Axelrod is an author, an illustrator, a graphic designer, a sculptor, a costume designer, a podcaster and quite a few other things that he's lost track of but will no doubt remember when the situation calls for it.
He is a founding member of the daily flash-fiction website 365 TOMORROWS, and the writer and producer of two science-fiction podcasts, “The Voice Of Free Planet X” and the serial “Aliens You Will Meet.
He is not domestic, he is a luxury, and in that sense, necessary.

The Truth About The Universe
August 17th, 2010
Way back at Balticon 44, Dr. John Cmar, and I revealed the truth, using slides created by Laura Burns and JR Blackwell. And now, through the power of Chooch Shubert, we bring the Truth About The Universe to you!
From the official Balticon Program:
JR Blackwell, Laura Burns, John Cmar and Jared Axelrod present both historical misinformation and lies they made up on the fly in this discussion about the nature of the universe. From the smallest microbe to the biggest gas giant, learn how things aren’t–but could be–presented by a panel of experts. Just, don’t believe anything they say. Moderator: Arioch Morningstar.
The Truth About The Universe was performed live at Balticon 44. Slides were created by Laura Burns and J.R. Blackwell;. The dialog was improvised on the spot by John Cmar, Jared Axelrod, and Arioch Morningstar. Music, editing, introduction and mulptile formatting by Chooch Schubert
Special thanks to Paul Fischer and the Baltimore Science Fiction Society
The following alternative download formats are available on Archive.org:
- Full resolution mpeg2 [302 MB] version
- Compressed mpeg4 [46.6 mb] suitable for Apple iDevices – it can be added to podcast feeds
- Open Ogg Theora [43.7] format that can be played on most Linux systems as well as other OSes if they have the codecs loaded
- Chooch also split it in half and uploaded them to YouTube (they have a 15 minute limit per video) for people that are more comfortable with YouTube streaming/embedding (Part 1, Part 2)
