Waldo by Robert Heinlein discussed and dissected. Part of the ongoing Heinlein Marathon.

I flip Rod for Rob a couple of times in this, but enjoy my read of Robert A. Heinlein's Tunnel in the Sky part of the Heinlein Marathon here at the Bunch O' Stuffcast.

I reread the surrealist fantasy novel The Vorrh. What did I think? Listen and find out! Also, I apparently have Escape Clause books for sale. And I was dead for a while! Cool, eh?

Also the next Heinlein Marathon book is announced :)

Meet Marjorie Friday, artificial person and courier and follow her though a late Heinlein adventure of excerable sex and brunch with a lot of detail on brunch and a lot of awkward dialogue about sex and some other poorly defined stuff... Still, she's an interesting character. Check out my review of this 1982 Heinlein story.

Why hasn't there been a new Heinlein Marathon update in a while? Well, let me tell you... Also, some thoughts on superhero fiction, comics, and movies. This is a random episode but I hope you will dig it.

Hey it is the long awaited deep dive into Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers, my all time favorite book and all time least favorite movie! You can also find the deep text related to this review at my Tumblr page - https://www.tumblr.com/blog/jrderego where a more comprehensive text will be uploaded and you can also read 5000 words about why I dislike the new film version of All Quiet on the Western Front!

While prepping the Team Shikaragaki volume I found a bit I cut out of Jobber back when I was getting it ready to submit to Demiurges and Demigods in Space and thought it was a fun bit to share. This is that.

Here is the oft promised rarely delivered audio version of Jobber. I did all the voices so you get what you get. The book where this appears can be purchased here  - https://www.monadnockunderground.com/product/demiurges-and-demigods-in-space-vol-1/  go get it! It's a great book and one definitely worth a few of your bucks as it will give them the capital to create another book of excellent short stories.

After 14 months away, I am back with the next installment of the Heinlein Marathon and some updates on the other stuff I've been reading and writing.

I take a few minutes to update listeners on the state of the Heinlein marathon, reveal the next book to get the podcast treatment, and divert a bit to talk about giant monster movies and the recent release of Godzilla vs. Kong.
