Buckle up for a month of James Bond multipath books!

It's time to discuss the real man the toy Buzz was based on. This week on Authorized, we discuss limp POS film Lightyear. Specifically, the way it squanders the talent of its cast and has an extremely ill-defined science fiction reality. The book is also pretty meh! But I swear we have fun.

This is what reading that godawful novelization from last Thursday was all about. Today, we invite our resident video game expert Kris Sundet back to discuss the N64 game Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue! Buzz is intent on rescuing Woody from Al and his toy barn. Can his willpower overcome the horrendous N64 camera and physics engine? Subscribe to our Patreon!: patreon.com/authorizedpod  Follow us on...

If this is your first episode of Authorized, I swear we talk about the books sometimes. This book is abhorrent. We mostly sing the praises of the great film Toy Story 2!

The wheel demanded an arm-wrestling drama, and we oblige. Subscribe to our Patreon!: patreon.com/authorizedpod  Follow us on letterboxd:  letterboxd.com/AOverbye/   letterboxd.com/hsblechman/   Next on Authorized: Toy Story 2

Joan D. Vinge has done so much for us. It was time we read one of her books!

The Wheel can be so kind. This week on Authorized, the Fates have assigned Sarah Welch-Larson the novelization of Canadian curling film Men With Brooms. It’s nuts that this thing has a novelization, and it’s nuts that it’s so very good.

Pay the wheel’s price and then we play nice. This week on Authorized, Mark Stay returns to cover a book he actually chose- Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. It’s full of so much character development for Scotty’s nephew and Saavik that James T. Kirk and his crew are like supporting characters. But it’s good, we promise!

What is the price of success? Irrelevant question, because Pearl is just going to kill everyone regardless. This week on Authorized, we’re joined by returning guest Bill Bria and new guest Mark Rennie to discuss the novelization of Pearl. What is it like to be in this character’s head for 180 pages? How will the book handle that big honkin’ monologue? Check out Mark’s podcast Eat Pray Dunk at CBB...

INTERVIEW WITH KIEL PHEGLEY AT 2:08:00 Another 2 years gone, another Sonic the Hedgehog novelization to dive into. This one’s a little different, though…We ask author Kiel Phegley why.

BREAK A DEAL. SPIN THE WHEEL. First John Cribbs spun the wheel. Then, he got to pick a book to cover. This week on Authorized, we’re discussing Joan D. Vinge’s Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. It’s all the pizzazz and razzmatazz of a Vinge novel with all the post-apocalyptic mayhem of Max Rockatanksy. If you don’t like this episode, maybe you don’t like Authorized!
