E.T. by William Kotzwinkle (w/ Mark Stay)
He's BAAAAAAAaaaaaack. Wrong movie, but whatever. This week on Authorized, we continue our new trend of reading a second novelization of a movie we've already covered; this time it's William Kotzwinkle's iconic novelization of E.T. the Extra Terrestrial! We're joined by author Mark Stay to discuss E.T.'s plant whispering, his benevolent healing of overseas miners, and mostly how unforgivably horny he is. I mean seriously, E.T., pump the brakes. You're not allowed to be this horny for a human lady. Next week on Authorized, we continue with the sequel, E.T.: The Book of the Green Planet!

BONUS: Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2
Like some sort of fractured, abstracted art film, Sisterhood 2 is here to tell us four distinct stories that really don't intersect at all. But hey, it's fun for the three hosts of Authorized to just hang out! We definitely discover that we are a better Sisterhood than the Pants one. We actually care about each other, for one! Next week on Authorized: Paxton Holley returns to talk a DIFFERENT novelization of Batman & Robin. Season 3 of Authorized starts July 28th!

Jurassic World Dominion by David Lewman
We all watched a movie we didn't want to- for CONTENT. But really, Overbye did read the junior novelization and it's decent. The movie?

Friday the 13th: Road Trip by Eric Morse (w/ Annie Kelly)
It's revenge of the nerd this week on Authorized. Forget The Hunter, Big Red, or Mitch Devers: This week Jason Voorhees' mask is taking a scrawny bullied teen and hulking him the heck out. We're joined by returning guest Annie Kelly to discuss haunted mechanical bats, cheating spouses and Jason copycats. Also, Hannah isn't here for the first time since Gremlins, so all of Overbye's worst opinions go completely unchallenged.

Friday the 13th: The Carnival by Eric Morse (w/ John Goodman)
The Carnival has come to Crystal Lake, and unsurprisingly, it's not very chill. We're joined by returning guest John Goodman of Exit Interview to discuss possessed Jason dogs, evil wax figures, and way too much inexplicable predatory behavior towards minors. Our third outing at Camp Crystal Lake is the most divisive yet- It's nice to have Overbye and Hannah back at odds.Check out John's podcast Exit Interview: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/exit-interview/id1534899949Follow us on Twitter: Twitter.com/authorizedpodInstagram: Instagram.com/authorizedpod--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/appSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/authorizedpod/support
