**Deep dive into my backlist with the B&N Podcast** Aug 22, 2018
Show notes

Talking with the B&N Podcast at San Diego Comic-Con is becoming an annual tradition for me; this year’s interview (MP3) with Joel Cunningham was a fun tour through my adult backlist, starting with my debut novel Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom and working our way through all six books, which Tor just reissued with amazing, matching covers.

Talking the hard questions of privacy and freedom with the Yale Privacy Lab podcast Aug 10, 2018

Show notes

This week, I sat down for an hour-long interview with the Yale Privacy Lab‘s Sean O’Brien (MP3); Sean is a frequent Boing Boing contributor and I was honored that he invited me to be his guest on the very first episode of the Lab’s new podcast.

As you might imagine, Sean had some sophisticated — and difficult — questions about privacy and freedom online and we delved into some material that I don’t normally get to cover. It was an exciting and challenging conversation!

Talking copyright, internet freedom, artistic business models, and antitrust with Steal This Show Aug 07, 2018

Show notes

I’m on the latest episode of Torrentfreak’s Steal This Show podcast (MP3), where I talk with host Jamie King about “Whether file-sharing & P2P communities have lost the battle to streaming services like Netflix and Spotify, and why the ‘copyfight’ is still important; how the European Copyright Directive eats at the fabric of the Web, making it even harder to compete with content giants; and why breaking up companies like Google and Facebook might be the only way to restore an internet — and a society — we can all live with.”

**Podcast: Let’s get better at demanding better from tech** Jun 25, 2018
Show notes

Here’s my reading (MP3) of Let’s get better at demanding better from tech, a Locus Magazine column about the need to enlist moral, ethical technologists in the fight for a better technological future. It was written before the death of EFF co-founder John Perry Barlow, whose life’s work was devoted to this proposition, and before the Google uprising over Project Maven, in which technologists killed millions in military contracts by refusing to build AI systems for the Pentagon’s drones.

Here’s the fourth and final part of my reading (MP3) of *Petard* (part one, part two, part three), a story from MIT Tech Review’s Twelve Tomorrows, edited by Bruce Sterling; a story inspired by, and dedicated to, Aaron Swartz — about elves, Net Neutrality, dorms and the collective action problem.

Earlier this spring, while I was on my Australia/NZ tour, I sat down with Australian author Nick Earls for his Green Room show, (MP3) to gossip, complain, and daydream about the writer’s life.
