Episode 157: You’ve made me the happiest geek on earth!
Photo by Lou AbercrombieWe have the pleasure of talking with Joe Abercrombie, author of The First Law trilogy and his most recent book, set in the same world, The Heroes. We also delve into the darker nature of fantasy these days, how that thieving leech Tolkien stole all of Joe’s ideas and then time traveled backwards to make them look like his own, and we take some questions from Twitter.

Justin Robert Young joins us to talk action movies, the need for pacing in modern films, how slow food can be fast, and the eternal question of whether you need sausage on your burger, and why we’re so damned tribal about things like Glee and Criss Angel. Oh and leeches.
