    We Worry About this Interview with Jason Pargin

    Join us in a conversation with New York Times best selling author, Jason Pargin, premier voice in high-concept fiction, known for blending surreal horror with sharp-witted social commentary.  Jason Pargin created the cult-classic John Dies at the End series, which was adapted into a major motion picture. He followed that success with the Futuristic Violence and Fancy Suits series, deconstructing the dark side of the upcoming digital age. His latest work, I Worry About the Box of Doom, follows two characters tasked with delivering a mystery box across America. During their long and often dangerous adventure from coast to coast, they find the time to deconstruct the cynical and conspiratorial realities of modern internet culture. A 15-year veteran Executive Editor of Cracked.com, Pargin has spent decades satirically analyzing how technology and internet culture reshape the modern human psyche. Pargin offers a level of insight into our current reality and future that few other authors can match. Check his website out at: https://johndiesattheend.com

    Edward Ashton on Humans being Alien Pets

    Is humanity worth saving after the end of the world? We're diving deep into the wreckage with Edward Ashton. the brilliant mind behind Mickey7, adapted into the major motion picture Mickey 17 by Academy Award-winning director Bong Joon-ho. Joined by Ashton superfan Haley Shaw, we explore his brand-new release, After the Fall, a darkly funny, high-concept sci-fi thriller that asks what it really means to survive. Expect aliens, pet ownership, and the kind of apocalypse humor that makes you laugh before you realize you should be terrified. After the Fall imagines a future where humanity has outlasted catastrophe, only to find itself conquered, domesticated, and ruled by aliens who see us less as equals, and more as house pets.

    Jim Whims pitches us Sony, Nintendo and a Talking Bear

    In this episode, we talk with the legendary Jim Whims, a titan of the industry who has stood at the center of major revolutions in toys, gaming, and technology. From co-founding Worlds of Wonder, the house that gave us Teddy Ruxpin and the first U.S. launch of Nintendo, to leading the charge at Sony, Jim was the man who took the original PlayStation from zero to a billion dollars in its first year. As a partner at Alsop Louie, he backed the gaming giants we use every day, like Twitch and Niantic, creator of Pokémon Go. Having seen it all, Jim's gift for storytelling, the same ability that made him a success at every turn, makes this one of our most compelling listens yet. This episode is co-hosted by Justin Ruiss.

    Flashback: Designing Star Wars Toys

    Before Galaxy One Radio, we were Forces Behind Star Wars and this is a very special episode from that series that we wanted to bring back from October 2021. In Forces Behind Star Wars 019, we had the chance to speak with legendary Kenner toy designers Jim Swearingen, Tim Effler, and Tom Osbourne about what it was like designing the Star Wars toys that so many of us grew up with — toys that became part of our lives. We’re excited to share this one again and we hope you enjoy revisiting it as much as we did.

    Matt Dinniman previews Operation Bounce House

    Matt Dinniman returns to the show to talk about his upcoming novel, Operation Bounce House. The book marks a shift from the over-the-top humor of the Dungeon Crawler Carl series into darker, more grounded themes, ironically, explored on a remote space colony. The story follows what happens when a group of gamers invade believing they’re playing a game, while for the colonists it’s terrifyingly real. In our conversation, Matt digs into very earthbound issues: the power of generative AI, corporations exerting control over our everyday lives, and how difficult it’s become to separate fact from fiction in the fog of war. We recorded this episode on location at New York University with student guest-host, Roman Gaud. Operation Bounce House releases on February 10, 2026!

    Shawn Dennis dreams of Shrek, Trolls and... Tiananmen Square?

    Shawn Dennis joins us for a fast-moving conversation that jumps from Janet-Jackson “boob-bowl,” to Trolls in space, the meaning of Shrek, and even the NFL and Tiananmen Square! Across her career—from Kenner Toys to Universal Studios Orlando, from the NFL to American Girl, and DreamWorks—Shawn has helped shape some of the most influential brands in modern entertainment.  What happens when a theme park opens and nothing works? Why do certain characters refuse to fade away? Why did the Trolls franchise had to be rebuilt from the ground up? and what DreamWorks learned about the emotional blueprint behind hits like Shrek and How to Train Your Dragon. It’s a wide-ranging conversation about storytelling, spectacle, cultural moments, and the strange ways pop culture travels through the world.
