Alright, so now let's get to our show.
Hi, I'm David Barr Curtley, author of the book Save Me Please and Other Stories.
And welcome to episode 586 of Geek's Guide to the Galaxy.
Today on the show we'll be discussing the last 10 stories in the new book Harlan Ellison's Greatest Hits.
We discussed the first nine stories back at episode 583, so definitely check that out if you missed it.
And this will include spoilers for everything in the book, so just be aware of that.
And I'm joined today by my good friend Tom Gorenzer, making his 33rd appearance on the show.
He's the author of the business book Think Like Google, the short story collection Intergalactic Refrigerator Repairmen Seldom Carry Cash, and the popular science book How It's Made, which he wrote for the Discovery Channel.
His middle grade novel the Magic Ski Mountain is out now.
So Tom, welcome to the show.
Thanks, Dave.
It's great to be here.
Okay, so just one bit of housekeeping before we get started.
So last time Tom and I talked about whether or not to review the Harlan Ellison stories of Boy and His Dog and Takroa Towan, which are two of my all time favorite Harlan Ellison stories and they're not included in this book.
And so what we decided to do is I actually after we recorded that, I discovered that there's another book called the Top of the the Award Winning Stories of Harlan Ellison.
And it includes 11 more stories including A Boy and his dog and Croatoan, 11 stories that aren't in this book.
