Ferris here. We're not exactly back, but we will be soon. This week, I tell you what's in the immediate future for the podcast. And I tell you about the massive, new, revised, expanded version of the book. Long story short... 1) Next week, I'm seeing the Kerry King band play headlining show. Then I'll drop an episode about it. 2) And shortly after that, we'll be back, with new additions to the book. 3) I TOTALLY (mostly) revised the book that I read from here, Slayer 66 2/3: A Metal Band Biography... or, How F*kin' Slayer Kicked F*ckin' Ass.

If you want to buy an autographed copy directly from me, reach out, and we can do that. Directions for that option are in the episode. The new 4th edition of Slayer 66 2/3: A Metal Band Biography... is available in four forms. Here's what they are, with links to them. They are at a reduced price for a limited time: $9.99 (ebook), $19.66 (short version), $26.66 (uncut ALL version), and $36.66 (oversize coffee table edition). 1) The Uncut Standard Version: It is... Paperback, 6x9”, 639 pages, includes a full index and works cited / bibliography section, plus annotated endnotes (with new Easter eggs), and 60 black & white photos & 11 illustrations. 500 pages of story, plus 100 pages of reference material. I'm not f*cking around. This one is the peak, biggest, All-est version of the current edition, with the most pages and photos. It has all the material from the previous versions, and then A WHOLE METRIC SH*T-TON MORE. The works cited is a trendy thing: It's one big list of all the different items I used in my research -- articles, videos, books,… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/talkin-slayer-a-metal-podcast-and-half-ssed-audiobook-6422518/episodes/episode-63-updates-on-podcast-giant-new-revised-edition-of-the-book-then/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/talkin-slayer-a-metal-podcast-and-half-ssed-audiobook-6422518/episode-63-updates-on-podcast-giant-new-revised-edition-of-the-book-then.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
