Pondering Nerdcast Ep 141 - #Dieforthedow
The Nerds talk about #Dieforthedow, the conservative-led effort making the social media rounds that shouts “Live by the Dow. Die by the Dow”. Right. We also discuss how Lance and Meke found The Expanse so late! Then we talk about the wonders of the Justice League vs. The Fatal Five movie. Don’t forget to place your bets for who will kick off the apocalypse, Texas or Florida. And FFVII? Take all of Lizzette’s money!

Listen in to our latest interview with FlameCon exhibitor, screenwriter and author of both The Future Next Door and Multiverse Mashup series, Brian Olsen. The genre of choice for his novels is Urban Sci-Fi, where Olsen excels in great storytelling and creating characters that are as genuine as possible.
Brian Olsen is based out of New York City but he is originally from Boston. He comes from a large family and credits this as a source of his amazing sense of humor.
Later in the game he realized his talent for prose and an opportune time presented him with the chance to work on his first book: Alan Lennox and the Temp Job of Doom. The rest is history; No scratch that, the rest is our PRESENT entertainment.
Enjoy the novels of Brian Olsen and let us know what you think!
