Episode 189—Scams! New York! Miscellany!

August 21, 2026

This one… well folks we just got it all out there. We spend some time talking about publishing impersonation scams, about our upcoming trip to New York, about Dune, about the Green Bay Packers, about bad publishing advice, about god knows what else. Erik learned that some reality TV is scripted? He didn’t like that. Not at all.

Episode 188—The Red-flagisode

July 13, 2026

This week, in response to a steady stream of questions about how to interface with literary agents either during the query process or once you’re actually working with them, we present to you: a list of Red Flags to look for with regard to agents! We get into communication styles, transparency, pressure, and much more as we try to work through whatever has you vexed about your interactions with agents. Let’s figure out what’s normal and what isn’t!

Episode 187—Goblins in the Source Code

June 12, 2026

This week we catch up on two pieces that caught our eye: one on the modernization of older children’s literature to match contemporary culture, and another on how every LLM chatbot keeps telling stories featuring the same vaguely aggrieved fictional guy. It’s weird! The goblins are closing in!
