One might reasonably ask what these two things have in common?\u00a0 The quick answer is of course Garon Whited. The not so quick response is also Garon Whited<\/a>. Garon and The Commander talk about one of his hard SF books, Luna<\/a>. and its roots in Plato’s republic and Lord of the Flies and seem to have a genuinely good time in paralleling the origin of the hero quest from Joseph Campbell. The conversation then moves into the commercial as Garon gets to discuss his \u201cday one exploits\u201d at DragonCon <\/a>and expectations there. Ever the pithy conversationalist, Garon never fails to entertain.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>\nhttp:\/\/www.scifisaturdaynight.com\/podcast\/talkcast499.mp3<\/a><\/audio>
