We’re back from Comic-Con and joined by Will to catch up about all the things we saw at the convention! Adam talks about the success of his incognito walk as the bear from the Revenant, and we talk about the panels he hosted on Cosplay and SyFy’s The Expanse.

Thanks for reminding me to pre order Death’s End
I was glad my roommate got me to read the Takeshi Kovacs novels a year or so ago, they were a fun read!
Another book to read, still on Seveneves….but just got American Gods audiobook ready to read next.
Put the knife down, Adam… you gesture too much to have sharp objects. Will looks horrified.
Don’t care how many times I say this but I miss Will. Good to see him back.
It’s changed over the years, but pre crisis, at least in the RPG, Gotham and Metropolis were across a body of water from each other.

I’ll second the American Gods audiobook recommendation. Not only is it a cast reading, but the version I got is updated and extended from the version I originally read back in 2002.
Phil Plait pointed out that The Simpson’s Springfield in the Southern Hemisphere.

It’s great to see Will again.
Death’s end will be released on the 20th September (at least here in the UK anyway) – Loved the first and second books, and completely agree that dark forest was better than the original three body problem.
It felt a little less impenetrable than three body problem, although that could just be that the entire first book felt like world building to me.
Thanks for another great video guys!
Could you please share the PDF Pattern service info with all of us?
Adam, have you seen the new Ghostbusters movie yet? Do you you think you’ll talk about it on Still Untitled soon?
Speaking of playgrounds– when I was growing up playgrounds did a nice job of protecting the ground around the ‘toys–‘ there was a nice strip of blacktop around the merry-go-round, around the ladder and bottom of the sliding board, and under the seats on the teeter-totter.
Of course, it was easy to sharpen a popsicle stick at the merry-go-round– just get it going really fast and rub the stick on the blacktop.
It wasn’t until years later that playgrounds tried to protect kids’ knees!
–Paul E Musselman
On our playground we just had patches of gravel, where the rocks were mostly gone (kicked into the surrounding grass) leaving hard sandy ground scattered with 1″ rocks. It was like falling on 1 million grit sandpaper :p
I did the LED shop light thing a year or so ago.
Good for you, Adam, to shop local. I’m a schmuck (and don’t live in a city with the options you have up in San Fran) and found these to be a good deal on Amazon (no flicker, affordable):

If I wanted to send you gentleman a book I can guarantee you have never seen, but would love to open, where would I send that to considering you guys have moved into a new office/studio? Sending me a PM would be an understandable response if you did not want to post the address it publicly. Thank you for another great podcast.
Audible’s Tenth Anniversary Edition, with Gaiman’s preferred text, and performed by a full cast, is just brilliant. If you want to listen to it that’s the way to do it. All 19 hours and 32 minutes of it.
Adam, if you have more specifics on your LED lights, I would really appreciate it. Brand, model, source, anything. Thanks!!!
