I don't even know where to start on a summary of Snow Crash.  Basically imagine a book about what the world's biggest dork would think was cool.  That's a start.  This book contains multitudes, good and bad, so we are giving it two parts.  The first one sets the scene, describes the world, and introduces the characters.  The second one will get real weird. Also, we have a special guest! Geoff from the Astronomica podcast joins us to discuss the many highs and lows of Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash.

The High Tech Low Life Podcast is a retrospective of cyberpunk fiction across all forms of media. Film, Television, Literature, Games, and Music are all on the table. In each episode we will revisit the property, it's influences, it's prescience, and enshrine it in the chrome and neon halls of Neo Valhalla.
