Hey everyone. Today's bonus content is an interview that Zach and I did with author Tal M. Klein.

His sci-fi novel, The Punch Escrow, was released on July 25th, and when we spoke to him on July 8th,

the film rights had already sold to Lionsgate. So pretty cool interview we got to do.

If you've found your way here because you are a Tal Klein fan, welcome. We are very glad to have you,

and we hope you enjoy the conversation, but you should know that this is not what our show is

typically like. We do interview authors every once in a while, but primarily

we are a fantasy audio drama about three high school kids from modern-day Pennsylvania,

who are transported to a magical realm embroiled in civil war. So if that sounds cool to you,

we encourage you to check out our main feed. Do start at the

beginning with The Prince of Yordan. It is all one continuous serialized story, and we would

love to have you give it a shot. Full disclosure, TALS publisher Inc. Shares sent us free review

copies of the Punch Esckro. They do that

with their books from time to time, but we reached out to TAL about an interview because we did

genuinely enjoy this book, and we haven't been compensated by Inchairs in any other way. But,

since we do have a few copies of the book, we are going to be giving them

away. Some will go to people who submitted questions for our upcoming Ask the Once in Future

Nerd episode, just like we did last time. But if you want another chance to win a book, you can tweet

about us and or tell. Make sure you use both the hashtags T-O-A-F-N and get punched.

That is hashtag T-O-A-F-N and hashtag get punched together, and we'll do like a raffle thing for people

who post in those tags. Speaking of Ask the Once in Future Nerd, if you haven't heard the news by now, we did hit

our reach goal on Patreon.

We are thrilled and flattered by that, and we want to thank you all so, so, so much.
