This crossover introduces my new podcast for my new pulp fiction magazine, BAM!

What if I told that 90 years ago Sinclair Lewis predicted the condition of the United States in 2025? Well, listen in and find out for yourselves. Warning: This is a political one and while I try to stay as out of the fray as possible there is only so much I can do. Intro clip from Jimmy Cliff - World Upside Down

Some thoughts on other science fiction book podcasts, reading vs. listening, and The Door into Summer review. I think this might be my new second favorite Heinlein book!

Let's talk about controversial art. The book Tampa is a tale of a women attracted to very young teens. Is it good? Is it bad? Let's talk about it. Also a short discussion of the next Heinlein Marathon book. https://a.co/d/0X0ONLY

Probably Robert Heinlein's most famous work and one that is a cornerstone in modern science fiction. Good read, and we'll get into it here so enjoy and I hope you grok it!

Let's talk about the role of AI in creating written content as it has create a big argument that threatens to destroy NaNoWriMo (not a big loss if you ask me) and see where we go from here. Also, here is a link to Team Shikaragaki Go! The new book of Union Dues stories. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DFVF5RWT

I would argue that this is Heinlein's most problematic work. Sixth Column is a horribly racist story, with a threadbare plot, and a lot of bullshittium to make everything kind of hold together.

I talk about a recent article by John Scalzi who had a similar experience to me when introducing juvie Heinlein to his teenaged daughter. I also talk through three books that I really enjoyed by Ottessa Moshfegh.

Waldo by Robert Heinlein discussed and dissected. Part of the ongoing Heinlein Marathon.

I flip Rod for Rob a couple of times in this, but enjoy my read of Robert A. Heinlein's Tunnel in the Sky part of the Heinlein Marathon here at the Bunch O' Stuffcast.

I reread the surrealist fantasy novel The Vorrh. What did I think? Listen and find out! Also, I apparently have Escape Clause books for sale. And I was dead for a while! Cool, eh? Also the next Heinlein Marathon book is announced :)

Meet Marjorie Friday, artificial person and courier and follow her though a late Heinlein adventure of excerable sex and brunch with a lot of detail on brunch and a lot of awkward dialogue about sex and some other poorly defined stuff... Still, she's an interesting character. Check out my review of this 1982 Heinlein story.

Why hasn't there been a new Heinlein Marathon update in a while? Well, let me tell you... Also, some thoughts on superhero fiction, comics, and movies. This is a random episode but I hope you will dig it.

Hey it is the long awaited deep dive into Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers, my all time favorite book and all time least favorite movie! You can also find the deep text related to this review at my Tumblr page - https://www.tumblr.com/blog/jrderego where a more comprehensive text will be uploaded and you can also read 5000 words about why I dislike the new film version of All Quiet on the Western Front!

While prepping the Team Shikaragaki volume I found a bit I cut out of Jobber back when I was getting it ready to submit to Demiurges and Demigods in Space and thought it was a fun bit to share. This is that.
