Evil Genius Chronicles Podcast for October 21, 2013 – “The Moral Argument”

Here is the direct MP3 download for the Evil Genius Chronicles podcast, October 21, 2013.

I talk about losing a weekend to a swingset; I mention how talking to yourself with a cellphone is socially acceptable but a microphone is not; I talk about how it took me two years to read a single novel and discuss a few things I finished; I finish by talking about the moral argument for paper books and why I’d be happy to get rid of 90% of the paper books in my house and my bafflement at “ad hominem defense.”

I’ve been a fan of Alison Bechdel’s cartooning for a long time. I have several of the collections of Dykes to Watch Out For comic strips, and when I read her graphic novel Fun Home I was absolutely blown away. I’ve been following her weblog for a while, and I can’t tell you how happy I was to find out that just like me, she’s kind of a disorganized pack rat. However, tonight she’s reversed it and gotten organized. Uh oh, the balls in my court, I guess. Looks like I’ve got some work to do this weekend.
