Scalzi/Doctorow Mashup Part II: The Quickening
Posted on August 1, 2008 Posted by John Scalzi 14 Comments
Hey, remember when I posted that video of me and Cory Doctorow talking about our upcoming books Zoe’s Tale and Little Brother? Good times, good times. Well, now we’re doing it again! I know! I can hardly believe it either! Plus I talk about bacon again, because apparently it’s expected at this point.
Enjoy.
*chortle*
But doesn’t Cory have any exciting bacon-related anecdotes to add?
You can run from the bacon, but you can’t hide.
FYI…not sure there is anything you can do about it, but the video won’t play in Firefox 3.01 (for me anyway). It quits about 3 seconds in. I had to open IE to watch it.
That’s hilarious! I wish I’d watched the other one when it first went online, so I just watched it now, You guys are frigging funny! Two geeks in a pod!
Too bad the both of you won’t be at VP this year. Enh, I’ll take what I kin git!
“The Quickening?”
So we’re all going to deny this ever happened, and castigate anyone who suggests there was ever more than one interview?
What ever happened, Adam?
The love the music and the explosions! it brings it home.
I’m still trying to figure out that magic trick. Cory must have removable digits.
So which one of you is Christopher Lambert and which of you is Sean Connery?
Personally, I prefer Electric Boogaloo when talking about sequel subtitles. It has the added benefit of rhyming with the number two.
The explosions and choral music are what really make this.
You know, that was thoroughly interesting. I’m not kidding. I could watch you two for hours.
Just for that, I’m going out and buying Cory’s book to go with all of yours that I already have on the shelf.
Nice work, John.
I wonder if anybody has done work in a related area to that of Language Removal Services – http://www.languageremoval.com – but in this case, just for vowels.
Because that would really make my list of wonderful things.
Just like bngbng.net has.
I couldn’t help myself, so I made up a redacted disemvowelled bngbng shirt, complete with scratched-out woman a la Violet Blue.
Of course I found out somebody else had a similar logo, but I like mine better
