PKDheads PodcastDick Adjacent #14 - Judith Merril RoundtableDick Adjacent is back. And it's a good one too. The story goes that after David finished reading some of Judith Merril's stories, he found a scathing review she wrote of PKD's story Roog, and with that connection made, it seemed only appropriate to gather a panel of experts together and discuss her place in the science fiction universe. Considered a feminist force, she had to bully her way through a male-dominated business to make her voice heard. Incredible person. Incredible story. And a truly accredited panel. So listen in on David, Lisa Yazek, Gideon Marcus, Ritchie Calvin, and Kathryn...
