In this episode we discuss superhero TV, mostly the new Watchmen series, but a few others too. We also try to figure out how the wealth of superhero TV we already have may or may not impact what Hulu could do with Wild Cards.
This episode is FREE to everyone including Patreon patrons--and don't worry; we'll be back to books in the new year.

Just a few bits and pieces:
Re Jordan Peterson: It seems I actually stopped reading at 52% through the book, so I guess I only understand 6 rules for living, but I noticed a few things that made sense and a few things that made me feel uncomfortable. I made Goodreads notes which you can read here--why not try to figure out which was which? (Also feel free to add me as a friend on Goodreads if you want to. I wish I had friends.)
I made a throwaway reference to Christopher Hitchens. Here's what he had to say about waterboarding, after experiencing it firsthand.

I'm tired so I'm phoning these in this week:
Finally, Ben has asked me to issue a formal apology on his part to bisexual people. He says: “The power I had over the bisexuals is that they admired me. And I wielded that power irresponsibly. I have been remorseful of my actions. And I’ve tried to learn from them. And run from them. Now I’m aware of the extent of the impact of my actions. I have spent my long and lucky podcasting career talking and saying anything I want. I will now step back and take a long time to listen. Thank you for reading.”

In this episode we discuss the second half of Card Sharks (Wild Cards Book 13).
Show NotesAs we mention in the episode, "Cursum Perficio" (1993) was indeed Kevin Andrew Murphy's first contribution to a Wild Cards novel, although he contributed to the GURPS Wild Cards roleplaying game supplement "Aces Abroad" in 1991. The fictional book within Philip K Dick's novel "The Man In The High Castle" is called The Grasshopper Lies Heavy, not The Grasshopper Lies Quietly as Ben says in this episode.
