Live from Massachusetts, Jason interviews Dan about his new book, “Eternity’s Tomb.” Topics include genetically-engineered murder birds, bear men, humanity as a pernicious rash, Stephen King’s bookshelves, and the difficulty of building a puzzle-based society. (We tried very hard to not spoil the book and think we did a pretty good job. But we do touch on many of its themes.) Thanks to Porter Square Books for hosting us! Host Jason Snell with Dan Moren.

As the venerable dad joke goes, make me one with everything! Glenn Fleishman gets enlightened discussing Hermann Hesse’s Siddhartha (1922). Host John McCoy with Glenn Fleishman.

But Brian and Lex are thrilled to be talking to each other - and you - about it all. Hosts Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
