This time on Science Fiction 101, we take some trips down memory lane to revisit classic time travel movies. We mostly focus on the Back to the Future series, but also a couple of wildcards: Primer (2004, Colin's pick) and Peggy Sue Got Married (1986, Phil's pick).

We also have a listener quiz, and our usual round-up of recommended SF past, present and future.

Traditionally on Science Fiction 101, we follow up our "old magazine" review with a review of its modern counterpart - and this year is no exception, as in this episode we cast our eyes over a very recent issue of Asimov's Science Fiction magazine, dated Nov/Dec 2025.

No time for a quiz this time (shock horror!), but it will return in our next episode.

But we do make time for our usual round-up of what's notable in past, present and future SF.

We're back! With our annual trek into the archives to read an old science fiction magazine, to see if and how our field has changed over the decades.

This time we time-travel to 1982, where we pick up the February 15th 1982 issue of Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine.

If you'd like to read along with us, you'll find the entire issue online courtesy of Luminist, here: https://s3.us-west-1.wasabisys.com/luminist/SF/ASI/ASI_1982_02.pdf
