Skepticality #075 - Words and Music - Interviews: Slau, author Scott Sigler

This week on Skepticality we talk to two good friends, both skeptics and podcasters making an impact in their areas of expertise. Slavko Halatyn (known to his many fans as simply "Slau") has enjoyed a rich career as both a music producer and award-winning recording artist.  Derek talks with Slau about his work with other artists (like skeptical favorite George Hrab), being an early adopter of podsafe music — and the links between his career, his world view, and his becoming legally blind at the age of 21. Author Scott Sigler sent a shot across the bow of mainstream publishing when, after first giving away his novel Ancestor for free as a PDF, the printed retail version then broke the Amazon.com top 10.  As a result, Scott earned himself a seat at the table and a deal with Crown books.  We talk to Scott about his new novel Infected — released on April 1st and already a bestseller.
