This episode, I review one of our favorite new shows on the SyFy channel, Warehouse 13, and Gary also helps to review it! Then Gary tells us his favorite things about DragonCon, Tim warns Darcy what happens if she gets out of line, and Gary reminds us all that cooler weather is coming, at least in the Northern Hemisphere where I live!

This is our 50th episode, and if you would like to call or email your best wishes and favorite things to do with your little geeks, please do! I would love to do a special show soon! Thanks for all the input, and keep it coming!

This episode, I pour out my experiences at Dragon*Con! There were some great events, such as the Parsec Awards, the Dollhouse Panel with Felicia Day, Dragon*Con TV, the Star Party, and many more. I hope you enjoy my excited ramblings about the weekend, from which I am still recovering!

Update 9/13 – Oops – I forgot to put Lois McMaster Bujold in the show notes -  her website is http://www.dendarii.com/
She is delightful and the books are great – in episode 19 in the show notes I discussed her book series.
I hope you like them!

Thanks for all the input, and keep it coming! And, if you have some time, I would appreciate a review on iTunes!
