Unfortunately, things aren't so bright for Al Miller. Join us as we discuss this early straight novel from PKD. Plus: Barney's Debut. Not that Bob Ross. And Umbilical Powers.

Hello DickHeads. It seems as if Philip K. Dick's fear of the machines taking over is coming true before our eyes. That is why today, we have a discussion on this interesting and divisive subject. David Agranoff explores PKD's fears, his class action case against Artificial Intelligence, and the future with Jay Edelson, the lawyer whose firm is leading the charge to regulate AI companies.

Hello DickHeads. The Hangout interview with Cody Goodfellow somehow didn't get recorded. To make up for it, David decided to rope in our old friend and former co-host, Anthony Trevino, to do a more traditional DickHeads Podcast interview with the author. Here they discuss Cody's latest novel, New Tomorrow, a little history, and Cody's views on the state of authorship as we move into the AI era.

The acclaimed horror novelist and Radio Free Albemuth playwright Lisa Morton joins the DickHeads for the final published science fiction novel we have to cover. Radio Free Albemuth is part autobiography, part VALIS mythology, and part rough draft. Most of all, it is pure PKD. Plus: Riffing on the Royal Portable. Fappers. And making groovy sandwiches.

Content warning: Linda is honest about the sexist environment at the university at the time; there are plenty of ugly moments between Phil and Linda, which are explained in this podcast. –DA

On this episode of the Dickheads podcast, The Davids welcome Linda Castellani. In the early 70s, she was an English major at Cal State Fullerton when her professor Willis McNelly asked her and a few other students to write to Philip K. Dick, who was going through a rough patch. A month later, Linda and her friend Tim Powers (the author who would go on to win the World Fantasy Award) picked up Phil Dick at LAX when he moved to Orange County. A young college student at the time, Linda was a short-lived crush for Phil.

Linda shares personal stories about her time at Cal State Fullerton, hanging out with Phil, Harlan Ellison, and Norman Spinrad. Through the highs and lows, she gives a picture of her time with one of the most important writers of the 20th century.

Hello fellow DickHeads. Yes, we are back. No, Langhorne is not dead yet. And this time, it's another straight novel, In Milton Lumky Territory. Another trunk piece published shortly after his untimely death. Here, he tells the story of young Bruce, his attempt to make it as a salesman in the Pacific Northwest, and the typewriters that would plague his dreams. Plus: Dope-ass symphonies. Neurotic fever dreams. And The highlife in Cincinnati.

The 'Not a Book Club Book Club' podcast on PKD, his books, and influence.

We recently went live from the Philip K. Dick Festival in Fort Morgan, CO, along with fellow DickHeads Jonathan Lethem & Stephen Graham Jones. I was at home but had fun in the chat and even managed to get some technical difficulties under control once I realized I could. Enjoy.

Hello PKD fans. We're back with the next straight novel, Puttering About in a Small Land, written early in PKD's career but published after his death. This is an interesting take on an extramarital affair. We are joined by PKD collector and scholar Frank Hollander to discuss this odd semi-autobiographical effort. Plus: Relatively long. Paul Giamatti. And Swimming with Sharks.
