Hey there everybody quick note about this week's episode I'm digging deep into my bag of tricks here and pulling out one of my favorites from the vaults this week for a few reasons the most important of which is well I need a little downtime after the insanity that was the last four weeks of

travel, film festivals, planning, all that fun, really boring stuff you don't want to hear about.

And I just need a little bit of time off.

And so what you're going to hear for the first time in the main feed is a Patreon bonus episode

Scott and I recorded way back in 2021.

And it's an interview with the one and only Michael Whelan.

Whelan is a prolific fantasy and sci-fi artist who has done a few king things,

but most importantly he provided the paintings for the very first and very last Dark Tower books.

We talk a lot about that with him, talk about his love of audio books, and mostly just geek

out about Dark Tower shit for an hour.

Because of that, I do have to warn you that we talk spoilers quite a bit,

especially about book seven, which is the very end of the road.

So if you're still on the road to the dark tower and haven't quite reached the end yet,

I'd recommend avoiding this unless you don't

give a shit about spoilers then listen away because we do talk quite a bit about some

late in the game story Elements here.

So I hope you enjoy it, but before we get to Scott and I talking to Mr. Whelan, I do have a sponsor

or two to tell you about starting with the Masters of MicroDosing.

Yes, Lamy labs.

If you're stressed out or your mind likes to run a million miles a minute,

then you might want to give loamy gummies a try.

They offer indicia, sativa, and hybrid gummies that are designed to be taken in smaller doses
