Podcast Description
Exploring the paranoid, hallucinatory future worlds of author Philip K. Dick. At the PKD Philosophical Podcast, we attempt to answer the important philosophical questions, like 'how tasty are martian go-birds?', and 'why can't androids dream of regular sheep like the rest of us?' Each episode covers one short story, or part of a novel, starting with Philip K. Dick's early short stories from 1952.

PKD
I have never been a reader of science fiction but I love it when someone breaks it down for me. I listen to a lot of podcasts and this totally charmed me. Nice going Adam and Phil.
Thoughtful, fun and well produced
A romp into PKD that's like a gentle massage for your Brain.
