Fictitious Podcast with author/editor Daniel H. Wilson

This episode is a conversation I had at San Diego Comic-Con 2015 with Daniel H. Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of Robopocalypse and its sequel Robogenesis.

For a young guy, Daniel’s had a pretty wild career, spanning books, television, and comics. And if it seems like he has an obsession with robots, keep in mind that he literally has a PhD in Robotics and a Masters in Artificial Intelligence.

His book Robopocalypse was optioned by DreamWorks and was in development by Steven Spielberg, though the film has been in production limbo for several years now.
