0:00.0	Pints with Jack. Season 4, episode 92. Bonus episode. Bookshopping with Andrew, Stephen, and Gordon,
0:08.3	or, as I like to call it, coveting Clive with Andrew, Steve Bibi, and Gordon Greenhill.
0:19.2	Well, welcome, everybody. Pines with Jack is your weekly CS-Lewis podcast, where David, Matt, and I break down and discuss the works of C.S. Lewis. This year, we've gone through every letter of screw tape. We've discussed the silver chair. And we're having great fun wrapping up the season with some bonus episodes. And today I want to talk about
0:38.8	a deep passion of mine talking or shopping for CS Lewis books. And so I brought in two of the people
0:44.4	I know who do better at that than even I do. So if you listen to the entire episode, at the end,
0:52.0	I'm going to explain what you have to do to win my services.
0:55.5	I'm offering a free book concierge service where I'll help you track down a collectible
1:01.1	CS-Lewis book for a few of our listeners or supporters. So happy to be joined today on this
1:08.0	episode by two of my good friends, Dr. Stephen Beebe and Gordon Greenhill.
1:13.8	Dr. Beebe was Regents and University Distinguished Professor of Communication Studies at Texas State
1:20.0	San Marcos. He served as chair of the Department of Communication Studies for 28 years and as
1:26.0	Associate Dean of the College of Fine Arts and
1:28.4	Communication for 25 years. Stephen has been visiting scholar at both Oxford and Cambridge University.
1:35.1	He also discovered a C.S. Lewis manuscript, which was part of an opening chapter of a book
1:41.1	that was to be co-authored with J.R.R. Tolkien called Language and Human
1:46.1	Nature. And oh, we wish that that book had been completed. Stephen Beebe has visited our show,
1:52.7	of course, before. And we loved having him on to talk about his new book, C.S. Lewis and
1:58.7	The Craft of Communication, which I heartily
2:01.5	recommend. And he also explained some of the communication secrets of our favorite devil's
2:07.1	screw tape. Our other guest, who goes by Gordon Greenhill, Dr. Jeremy Gordon Grinnell,
2:13.2	who goes by Gordon Greenhill professionally, has been scouring libraries used bookstores and
2:18.9	internet collection publication data on CS Lewis's books.
