September 18, 2023 Indiana Jones and the Cup of the Vampire by Andrew Helfer (w/ George & Mark Stay)
Our R.L. Stine Indiana Jones series may be over, but there’s like 10 more of these Indy multiparty books, and we’ll get to them all.

Today, we’re joined by returning favorite Mark Stay and his son George to discuss Indiana Jones and the Cup of the Vampire, a book in which Indy and you, his employee, help protect Indy’s friend who is maybe a vampire. It barely feels like an Indy story, if we’re being honest.

Check out Mark Stay’s writing! https://markstaywrites.com/

Look for George Stay as a featured extra in Netflix’s Anatomy of a Scandal!

This movie knows what everyone wants out of a Butterfly Effect sequel- smaller stakes! What if a guy used his Butterfly Effect to try to close a business deal? Uh, who cares?

September 07, 2023 Supernatural: The Roads Not Taken by Tim Waggoner (w/ Rebecca Bulnes and Tim Waggoner)
That's right, we're trying to tap into the vast Supernatural fandom. This week on Authorized, we welcome back Rebecca Bulnes to discuss a Supernatural choose your own adventure book that sees the WInchester brothers facing a series of episodic monsters-of-the-week. But are they all connected?

We also welcome back Tim Waggoner, friend of the show and author of this book!

September 04, 2023 Ranking the Novelizations Season 5
We’ve reached the end of another season of Authorized and, let’s be honest, the books kind of sucked this time around. Hannah and Overbye catch up about their personal lives, their reckless abandonment of health insurance, and their cats. Plus Overbye tells a story about having stomach issues in public that Hannah (and you) probably wish you hadn’t heard.
Also we rank the novelizations, duh.

August 31, 2023 The Cat From Outer Space by Ted Key
This episode has maybe my best game ever. Check the instagram out for sure.
It's the Season 5 finale, and Hannah finally gets her way- We're talking The Cat From Outer Space. A cat comes from space, and he is trying to get back there, but it's hard. It's Back to the Future if Marty was a cat. Anyway, it's a damn good ep.

August 24, 2023 Demolition Man by Richard Osborne (w/ Matt Bors and Ben Clarkson)
Richard Osborne does NOT explain the three seashells, and such is the touch of a great novelizer. This week on Authorized, we tackle the Demolition Man with the creative minds behind Justice Warriors, Matt Bors and Ben Clarkson. The book, while no peach, actually explains where Stallone's daughter is. If anything, it reveals what a mess of a film we're dealing with. One thing's for sure: Osborne has a grip on the voice of Simon Phoenix.

August 17, 2023 Virtuosity by Terry Bisson (w/ Jake Rockatansky)
Somehow in our 100+ episodes we have never touched the genre of the 90s scifi thriller. This week, QAA's Jake Rockatanksy helps us follow Officer Barnes as he hunts SID 6.7 through the streets of LA. The novelizationist takes every opportunity to add gore, and takes some opportunities to make the movie...better.

August 10, 2023 A Life Less Ordinary by John Hodge (w/ Jesse Hassenger)
It's a classic premise- Boy gets fired, kidnaps the boss's daughter, but she's got the better kidnapping instincts, so they team up and fall in love. Also, there's angels.

Today on Authorized, we welcome Jesse Hassenger back to discuss the novelization of A Life Less Ordinary, penned by screenwriter John Hodge himself. It explains how heaven is actually a terrible place full of wealth disparity that makes the deceased envy the living. Among other insights!

August 03, 2023 Assassin’s Creed by Christie Golden (w/ Fran Hoepfner)
No, we haven’t become a video game podcast. We just put out a bonus episode about a video game last week, and this week we’re doing a novelization of a movie based ON a video game. Back to our bread and butter.
This week, we’re joined by Fran Hoepfner to discuss the novelization of Assassin’s Creed. She helps us to understand how the movie sheers to the video game, and Overbye accidentally says he thinks the Templars are good. Whoops!
