As she balances what she has to do with what she wants to do, a mystery man shows up to teach her that instead of waiting for her new life, she should go out and steal it.

MAJOR SPOILERS POLL OF THE WEEK

DISCUSSION: Nextwave: Agents of HATE
The Highest Anti-Terrorism Effort, or H.A.T.E. (a subsidiary of the Beyond Corporation©) put NE XTWAVE together to fight Bizarre Weapons of Mass Destruction. When NE XTWAVE discovers that H.A.T.E. and Beyond© are terrorist cells themselves, and that the BWMDs were intended to kill them, they are less than pleased. In fact, they are rather angry. So they make things explode. Lots of things. Starring Monica Rambeau (formerly Captain Marvel and Photon), Aaron Stack (Machine Man), Tabitha Smith (X-Force's Meltdown), monster-hunter Elsa Bloodstone and The Captain!

Aurora, by Kim Stanley Robinson feat. Will Smith (LPDR00014) Apr 12, 2016

Show notes

It's our first episode with a guest host! We're joined by virtual reality talk show host Will Smith to discuss Aurora, by Kim Stanley Robinson.

What's Aurora, you ask? Well, you should probably read the book before you listen to the episode, but it's a touching tale of generation ships, systems ecology, island biodiversity, emergent AI, and what happens when you throw a bunch of people into a sealed tube for 140 years.

This is the kind of book that should be right up our metaphorical alleys, since most of us have a deep love of Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars series and all of us are into spaceships.

Check out Will's virtual reality talk show, FOO TV, and follow him on twitter at @willsmith

As always, you can reach us at lizardpeopledearreaders@gmail.com or tweet to us at @DRLizardPeople.

Episode 00016's book won the 2015 Hugo Award for best novel. It's The Three-Body Problem, by Cixin Liu! Get excited!

GHL Ep 109 - Alfred Pennyworth Apr 11, 2016

Show notes

Alfred Pennyworth is perhaps the most important Batman character of all. He's sidekick, employee and father to Batman; plus he can make an excellent dinner. Where did Alfred get all these skills? We'll tell you!

So sit back and enjoy as Ashley and Jason begin their lesson. You might learn something. Enter your Mind University!

Be careful! This podcast contains SPOILERS. So if you don't want to know what happens, then you should come back later.

The Collegiate Association of Table Top Gamers (CATTG), is an international college-student run organization for table top gaming clubs at universities whose interests span (but are not limited to) paper and pencil RPG's, collectible card games, and board games of all shapes and sizes. There are currently fifteen official chapters, all of which run themselves individually, but collaborate to keep the network strong. All activities are done in a non-profit manner, and the organization affiliates its activities and goals with other non-profit organizations such as the Ronald McDonald House, Toys for Tots, and various other philanthropic programs and events such as cancer walks.
The organization, founded by J.C. Clare and Tom Elliott, started as an individual club at **Fort Hays State University**, Kansas when it was approved by the Student Government Association there on November 21, 2003. In 2005, current Executive Director Mike Roselli (NCSU) contacted former President Logan Bonner (FHSU) and after a series of meetings, a new CATTG Chapter was ready to be instituted. On February 9, 2006, the organization grew to a national level when the second CATTG chapter was founded at North Carolina State University.

Wayne’s Comics Podcast #224: Nadja Baer and Nathan Lueth Apr 10, 2016

Show notes

I first discovered Impure Blood and Melting Down at this year’s C2E2, and after reading their great books, I knew I had to interview creators Nadja Baer and Nathan Lueth. They discuss how they’re bringing the Impure Blood series of graphic novels to fans everywhere, including how Nathan introduced Nadja to comics, how they work together as a team, and how they put these books together, including using laying out the pages in landscape format instead of the usual portrait mode comics often appear in. This series is also a webcomic, with a new page appearing every Monday. We also talk about Melting Down, which is described as “a comic for kids with Asperger’s Disorder and challenging behavior,” a comic I found both riveting and educational.

To hear more discussion about Volume 1 of Impure Blood, go to this link for Episode 643 of the Major Spoilers Podcast!

To check out Impure Blood online, you can visit their website at this link. To buy these books, you can also go to this link at Amazon.com for Volume 1, here for Volume 2, and this location for Volume 3. Volume 4 is due Winter 2017. Melting Down can be found here on Amazon as well. You can also purchase their comics through the avenues listed in this episode. Highly recommended!
