Andrew's sci-fi narrative thing

As promised, we’re dropping this in the feed for posterity. Andrew wrote it with a handy assist from AI for the Radiopaedia 2025 virtual conference. It was designed to align with the daily subspecialty and visual themes of the event. Many people enjoyed it (some probably didn’t) but here it is for you all in audiobook form, read by the wonderful Alex Furness. Let us know what you think: podcast@radiopaedia.org
