Diet Soap Ghostcast: Philip K Dick on Hour 25




Zero Squared show

Summary: I'm caught up in the last rewrite of my book "Billy Moon: 1968" which will be out from Tor Books next year, and did not get a chance to edit together an interview of my own, so this week Diet Soap has been replaced by a rerun from another program, the Science Fiction Interview show Hour 25. This is a conversation between Philip K. Dick and Mike Hodel which was recorded In 1977, just before the release of A Scanner Darkly. This interview is also available on youtube.

Dick check out philipkdick.com As to Hour 25, here's some information from Wikipedia: Hour 25 was a radio program focusing on science fiction, fantasy, and science.
