In this episode, we interview Gordon Telepun, the maker of the popular Solar Eclipse Timer App, and discuss his new book, "How to Enjoy, Observe, and Photograph a Total Solar Eclipse" as well as some of his background as a five-time solar eclipse observer and astrophotographer. The book, unlike others available, focuses on the moment-by-moment events that one should prepare for in sequence throughout the day of a Total Solar Eclipse.
Gordon's experience as a plastic surgeon has provided him with the unique ability to take complex ideas and put them into terms that are understandable by the general public. This skill is obvious throughout the book and our discussion.

The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
