Tor.com debuts the Geek’s Guide to the Galaxy podcast

January4

Today the Geek’s Guide to the Galaxy podcast debuts over on Tor.com, featuring John Joseph Adams and David Barr Kirtley. In the first episode they cover post-apocalyptic video games and fiction, and interview Chet Faliszek, lead writer on the Left 4 Dead games.

John emailed me yesterday to let me know that I would be credited as the “podtern,” which is a wonderful title and means I don’t have to feel weird about talking about it directly here. Yay!

The most immediate result of all of this for me personally, apart from the satisfaction I get out of helping out on something awesome, is that after listening to the podcast a few times I downloaded DOSBox so I could play Wasteland. :)

Congratulations to John, David, and everyone at Tor.com on their launch!
