Could the true spiritual sequel to the original 1978 Alien be a video game? We say maybe. This week on Authorized, we discuss the 5-years-later novelization of Alien: Isolation and then interview its author Keith R. A. DeCandido. Interview at 2:02:00 We're also joined by Overbye's college buddy Trevor Thomas, who introduced him to the game and is way better at it than all of us.

ORIGINALLY AIRED 6 / 22 / 2022 It's revenge of the nerd this week on Authorized. Forget The Hunter, Big Red, or Mitch Devers: This week Jason Voorhees' mask is taking a scrawny bullied teen and hulking him the heck out. We're joined by returning guest Annie Kelly to discuss haunted mechanical bats, cheating spouses and Jason copycats. Also, Hannah isn't here for the first time since Gremlins, so all of Overbye's worst opinions go completely unchallenged. Check out Annie Kelly's series Vaccine: The Human Story: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/vaccine-the-human-story/id1569810932Check Out Annie Kelly on the QAA podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/qanon-anonymous/id1428209307Follow us on Twitter: Twitter.com/authorizedpodInstagram: Instagram.com/authorizedpod

Joy to you and yours

ORIGINALLY AIRED 6/10/2022 In celebration of Jurassic World: Dominion, we're reading another Jurassic Park 3: Jurassic Park 3! Join us as we discuss feather placement on raptors and basically write slash fanfic for Alan Grant and Billy. Also, Marco and Overbye read Jurassic Park: Survivor, a book detailing how Eric Kirby survived his eight weeks on Isla Sorna. Thematic resonance between these two volumes abounds.
