Wired.com presents, the Geek's Guide to the Galaxy.

And here is your host, David Barr-Kirtley.

Hello and welcome to episode 239 of Geek's Guide to the Galaxy. Today on the show we'll be discussing the CBS series Brainsed

about insects from outer space

to infect the brains of DC politicians making them increasingly partisan.

And this will involve spoilers for the entire first season of Brain Dead, so just

be aware of that and I'm joined by three guests. first up we've got our producer John Joseph Adams. He's the editor of

Light Speed and Nightmare magazines and he also oversees John Joseph Adams books

an imprint of Houghton Mifflin Harcourt.

He's the series editor of The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy, and he's also edited many

other anthologies, including the recent books loosed upon the world and to what the bleep is that.

His new anthology Cosmic Powers will be out in April.

So John, welcome back.

Thanks, good to be here.
