About this listen

Discussions of abuse and assault allegations against Neil Gaiman from 8:00-15:45


Our first repeat author episode is Mike Resnick, who wrote a story that feels right at home next to "Kirinyaga". But first, Jack and Sam have a lot to get to,

from dealing with the latest revelations from a once admired writer to the works of John Steinbeck. After that, it's time for a tour of Antares III, a planet full

of incredible architecture and a fascinating history. It's a shame that the human tourists care so little for it.


Mentioned in the episode:


Lila Shapiro's article on Neil Gaiman

Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino
