Episode #46 - VALIS - special guest David Gill

PKDheads Podcast

Editor's Note: We recommend you check out our VALIS Incident episode to get more insight into the subject matter before you dive into this one. We have dedicated this episode to the memory of Phil's good friend and fellow writer, Radell Faraday Nelson, 1931-2022. R.I.P. Greetings, PKD fans. David Gill joins the usual DickHeads to discuss PKD's religious mystery novel VALIS. Horselover Fat is on a quest to find out why a pink laser beam of pure knowledge entered his brain one day and now he has strange visions and preternatural cognition of events around him. Is Horselover a genius or a madman? Has his Rhipidon Society really found the trail to the messiah? We attempt to figure it all out. Plus: Langhorne visits a chocolate factory. Gonad Kid. And navel-gazing with Sigmund Freud. •Our Patreon ►► http://www.patreon.com/LanghorneJTweed •Electric Larryland Discord ►► https://discord.com/channels/557458722268643329 •David's YouTube Channel ►► https://www.youtube.com/user/Veganrevwithzombies/ Find David Gill: •Total Dick-Head Blog ►► http://totaldickhead.blogspot.com/ PKD News: •NYT Top PKD ►► https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/26/books/best-philip-k-dick-novels.html •Tor Severance and the PKD ►► https://www.tor.com/author/david-agranoff/ •Within you, Without You: Philip & Jane Dick ►► https://www.tor.com/author/david-gill/ Dicklike Suggestions: David's A.
