This is the second podcast series from author King Everett Medlin. It's called Twin Paradox and it's based on a SciFi trilogy he wrote four years ago under the pseudonym Purple Hazel. When he set out to write Twin Paradox, King wanted to create a realistic and believable world less than one hundred years in the future.  Rather than devising (or assuming) technologies that would be barely conceivable given known scientific principles, he tried taking current developmental theories and applying them.  It wasn't difficult to find such theories.  In this first installment, you will learn of our current society's eventual collaps...

In this, the final episode of Season Two, Young-Min Jo meets for the first time in 24 years, his identical twin Kwang-Min.  Seeing up close the world his brother exists in - wealthy, almost extravagant - Young-Min's jealousy boils over.  Wishes he could somehow be a part of it!  

Be careful what you wish for, as they say, for Kwang-Min most certainly does have a role for his twin brother to fulfill within Min-Pharma Enterprises ... assuming he can check his morals and ethics at the door.  A new drug is making its way out of Afghanistan.  Gover...

In this episode, Zero and Young-Min Jo finally meet.  They're attracted to one another; no question there.  Zero can't believe her eyes.  Didn't realize he'd once been a Lieutenant.  Simply has to ask him all about the space mission to Kapteyn B and all that he experienced there.  Gives them plenty to talk about as they walk up the driveway to Min-Pharma's world headquarters then down to the parking garage where there's a private elevator.  The elevator requires scanning the palm of one's hand in order...

We continue with Young-Min Jo's arrival at Min-Pharma world headquarters in Toronto.  Having avoided confrontation with security guards at the front gate, he is next to encounter his twin brother's head of security Xi Jiu Xiu, aka Zero.  Though forewarned they are identical and that the effects of time dilation will mean Kwang-Min's brother might in all likelihood look much younger and perhaps more appealing than the boss himself, Zero is nevertheless taken by surprise.  Not only that, she's instantly smitten.  For Young-Min it's the same.  

We then...

Tonight we continue with Young-Min Jo's dramatic return to Toronto after 24 years in space.  We left off with a white solar-powered van arriving at the gate of Min-Pharma Corporation's worldwide headquarters, security personnel swarming around it.  A tense scene unfolds as the military escorts sent along with the young officer fear a potential confrontation with the beefy giants.  Perhaps a firefight.  

We then flash back to several hours earlier when Ensign Jo was traveling via airship from Frankfurt, enduring all the depredations of an international flight.  Bored out of his mind and unable to sl...

Tonight we begin Part Eight:  Tycoons and Trailblazers.  We've already learned what happened when Ozzie Guerrero and Shamiso Kachote traveled to their home towns looking for their twin siblings.  They found one to be a retired sports legend.  The other, a world famous pop diva.  But what of Young-Min Jo?  What became of his identical twin?  

A successful businessman is what we know so far.  An extraordinary entrepreneur, he is both founder and current CEO of a corporation called Min-Pharma, which employs thousands the world over.  He's rich beyond belief; that we can assume. ...

Shamiso comes face to face with her identical twin Rudo Kachote after 24 Earth years.  Not exactly identical due to the effects of time dilation; they nevertheless move and act much the same.  Strikingly so, one might say.  Setting aside nuances such as fashion choices and hairstyles, they're otherwise a matched pair.  Could pose as one another quite easily and fool just about anybody.  Given their dire circumstances, regarding missed concert dates and threats of breach of contract, this might be just what the doctor ordered. 


Season Two ... Chapter Thirty-Five: Club Girl

06/21/2021

Shamiso learns of her sister's recent past, as told by the woman's business manager Neville Bevits.  Not the stories told in the media, naturally, but the actual events he'd witnessed firsthand. 

More or less anyway.  After all, the pop star hadn't told him everything she'd done (and with whom).  The truth about Rudo Love's nocturnal adventures were far more salacious; potentially more scandalous than even he could have imagined.  If members of the press only knew, they'd have had a field day - assum...

Continuing with Part Seven:  Divas and Drugs, Shamiso's adventure progresses to the penthouse suite inside the beautiful Langham Hotel in London.  That's where, as everyone in the music world knows, her twin sister lives.  Shamiso's first encounter was with a rather nervous hotel doorman who fully believed she was Rudo.  No telling what she'll find when the door to the penthouse suite is flung open.  Will it be her long lost sibling?  Or yet another weirdo?

 Tonight we begin Part Seven:  Divas and Drugs.  We now get to see what happens when Shamiso Kachote makes her way to England looking for her twin sister Rudo.  

She won't be hard to find.  Everyone following the entertainment world knows that Rudo Love lives in the penthouse suite of a swank London hotel.  Articles and news stories abound - even interviews conducted there with the famous pop star.  

Contacting her however - specifically getting in to see her - might be the biggest challenge.
