PKDHeads Podcast Bonus – Details, episodes & analysis

Content warning: Linda is honest about the sexist environment at the university at the time; there are plenty of ugly moments between Phil and Linda, which are explained in this podcast. –DAOn this episode of the Dickheads podcast, The Davids welcome Linda Castellani. In the early 70s, she was an English major at Cal State Fullerton when her professor Willis McNelly asked her and a few other students to write to Philip K. Dick, who was going through a rough patch. A month later, Linda and her friend Tim Powers (the author who would go on to win the World Fantasy Award) picked up Phil Dick at LAX when he moved to Orange County. A young college student at the time, Linda was a short-lived crush for Phil.Linda shares personal stories about her time at Cal State Fullerton, hanging out with Phil, Harlan Ellison, and Norman Spinrad. Through the highs and lows, she gives a picture of her time with one of the most important writers of the 20th century.–DAOur Patreon ►► http://www.patreon.com/LanghorneJTweed

The 'Not a Book Club Book Club' podcast on PKD, his books, and influence. We recently went live from the Philip K. Dick Festival in Fort Morgan, CO, along with fellow DickHeads Jonathan Lethem & Stephen Graham Jones. I was at home but had fun in the chat and even managed to get some technical difficulties under control once I realized I could.

David chats with Walter Nelson on the legacy of his recently passed father, Ray Nelson, and how growing up the son of a famous author in the Berkeley scene was different than the typical American upbringing. Including what it was like having PKD as a babysitter. Unfortunately, this interview is a bittersweet one, as Ray Nelson recently passed away at the age of 91.

Hello DickHeads. Here's a new Dick Adjacent for all you Alfred Bester fans. With references to Joyce, Dumas, Blake, Pound, and Shelley, along with the usual dose of PKD, this one is a literary smörgåsbord. And it's really no wonder considering professor/writer/publisher D. Harlan Wilson is back on the show to discuss his new critical companion to Bester's controversial novel The Stars My Destination A.K.A Tiger! Tiger!

With special guest John Shirley.

Sometimes an episode runs too long and I'm forced to cut out some small bits. Usually these tidbits end up on Patreon in one form or another. However, this particular story, while long, I considered too important to cut or keep hidden behind that $1 paywall. So enjoy PKD's wackadoodle early 70s rollercoaster.

In the first episode of this podcast, Solar Lottery, David said he would someday do this episode. So four years later, in January of this year, he sat down with a couple of colleagues and discussed the lesser-known novel The Big Jump by Leigh Brackett. The pair of talents he was privileged to have here are newcomer to Leigh Brackett writer/music manager/tarot reader Grant Wamack and long time 'Bracketteer' teacher/translator/writer and two time Hugo nominee Cora Buhlert.

Happy New Year, PKD fans. We have something a little different for you to start the year off. A LIVE recording. This last December, Verbatim Books & North Park Main Street got together to host the North Park Book Fair, and while not all the DickHeads could attend, David was there representing the podcast. While doing so, he had the chance to chat with several San Diego-based authors about their work and their thoughts on Philip K. Dick.

Well DickHeads we have made it to the VALIS incident. And in celebration, David brought together family, friends, and a PKD fan/gnostic expert to discuss Phil's path through this seriously odd time. Tessa B. Dick, William Sarill, and Ted Hand guide us through 1974 with personal insights and expert knowledge.
