Happy New Year!  :)  Due to a combination of Christmas celebrations and unexpected issues at work for one of our co-hosts, we're...a little behind on recording.  But, never fear!  We have a special bonus episode that we already said was on the way sometime anyway...

This episode is a portion of episode #023 -- our review of the movie "The Adjustment Bureau" (a good movie and a good review; check it out) -- which ran a little long and had to be cut out of the original review and saved for later...which is now.

This segment is a discussion of the works of Philip K. Dick, the author of the short story that inspired the movie.  "Adjustment Team" was published in 1954, and Philip K. Dick passed away in 1982.  But, his literary works continue to inspire movies & TV shows to this day, including "Blade Runner" (1982), "Total Recall" (1990 & 2012), "Minority Report" (2002), A "Scanner Darkly" (2006), "The Adjustment Bureau" (2011), and two recent Amazon Prime TV series, "The Man in the High Castle" and "Electric Dreams."

As always, we go on tangents, so we also discuss other classic books & movies by other writers as well.

Check out this special episode, as we take time to prepare more great content for you in 2021.  Stay tuned.  In the meantime, feel free to say "Hello" or give us feedback at one of the contact options below.  :)
