In this week's Big Time Talker Podcast, we tune in to an episode from 2008 with famous author, Homer Hickam. Homer recently returned to his home state of West Virginia where he teased the development of a tie-in film to the critically-praised October Sky.

October Sky (1999) starred Jake Gyllenhaal and Laura Dern and was based on Homer's best-selling novel, Rocket Boys.

This throwback episode takes place before the annual Rocket Boys Festival, where Homer and the former Rocket Boys would visit their hometown of Coalwood to celebrate science and the West Virginian spirit.
