You may not know much about Harlan Ellison, but we can almost guarantee that you have read or seen something either written by him or copied from his work. Ellison, who passed away at the end of last month, was James' favorite writer. Today, we're paying tribute to him. You'll hear us discuss Ellison's writings, personality, and influence over pop culture. We'll also tell you about the time we met Ellison and how it didn't quite go as expected. (Episode Rated R)

As a side note, each episode name is always a quote said by someone during the show. Today's episode name, "We Don't Want to Offend Mothers," (said by James) is special for two reasons. We do want to wish a Happy Mothers' Day to all the moms out there, but we also want to wish a Happy Birthday to our very own Dr. James Thomas!
