Sin & Sci-fi in the 60s: The France Books Universe *was* a video podcast. Longer form videos *were* available as audio podcasts.
Discover the fascinating characters surrounding International Publications, Inc., the publisher of sordid novels from 1962-1963 under the France Books banner. A publisher who would become a renowned biker, a fellow who would later have the audacity to claim he schtupped his pal James Dean, the man who co-created comic book heroine Black Widow, the most prolific Canadian writer ever, and a Who’s Who of science fiction writers all repped by editor/agent Forrest J Ackerman (the man who coined the shortened term “sci-fi”), and many, many others, including a writer whose earlier publisher was sued for libel in the amount of $750,000 by a former king of Egypt!
Join hosts R__ & G___ as they dig deep sixty years back to unearth the hidden past. They're both Ed Wood fans and won't let up 'til they find Wood in one of the "France 75".
