Avast bad book lovers, we be plundering the Spanish for their gold, even if we are one dimensional 80s heist clichés, and the plot kind of dies in the middle and the ending is just murder, and if the author probably didn't intend for the book to go out after he died and what may have happened is the people in charge of his estate used the unfinished manuscript as a shameless money grab to cash in on Crichton's name recognition. In spite of all those (Possible) things, we're still going to do pirate shit, Aargh. Enjoy!
We got some birds, and we're gonna box 'em. We talk about the irritating writing style and choices made in the book and for once we both agree the movie is better than the book. Enjoy!
This episode we're grabbing our volleyballs and going to a tropical, deserted island where we slowly starve for two years and come to peace with never returning home and seeing our family ever again. Join us for this socially tumultuous survival story. Enjoy!
This legendary tome has been spoken of for generations (like 2 or 3 max), made fun of at dinner parties and on the internet for eons (50 years or so). We go over The Eye of Argon, renowned for its terribleness and dnf'd by most, and we decide, is it really that bad? Also we found a sympathetic author who tried to fix the story. Enjoy!
We go over The lawnmower man by Stephen King, and for complicated legal reasons we're going over a completely unrelated movie that new line cinema used Stephen Kings name to promote for. Its a reasonable book and short film, and drug induced nightmare movie about the internet before it was conceived. Enjoy!
Hey you, Yeah you! Bugs read a Colleen Hoover book where the characters are awful and treat each other like trash. Join us for the breakdown of how the author thinks spousal abuse happens, and if anyone asks where you got those bruises, tell them you fell down some stairs. Right? Enjoy.
Ever fantasized about going on an adventure on the high seas? Sought the sights of exotic creatures? Looked through poop on the ground for ...pennys? Join us on the emotional death spiral where we nearly die on the open seas and eat our best friend! Enjoy...
Merry Christmas in July?! Its a Christmas story that's mourning the loss of Americana, all you damn kids looking at your phones on the train instead of talking to unpleasant strangers that also don't want to talk to you, make a new family with train strangers that are in a conspiracy to trick you into falling in love for Christmas with someone who is clear on wanting nothing to do with you. Enjoy!
Do you like Indiana Jones? You do!? How about a guy that isn't Indiana Jones but is Mormon, that's the same right? A whip? not a one. Dashing main character? Only if he's dashing toward the nearest precipice, but he is Mormon, that's enough right? It's the action packed story of a Moroni, a man with the negative charisma of a youth pastor that has never seen sunlight and a name that sounds like it will be at the next pot luck that no one will eat. Enjoy!
Its been some weeks since we recorded this episode and I still don't know how to describe it. Do you want a story about the power of ambition? Do you want to learn about spiritualism from a bird? Can time travel be considered a form of flight? find out the answers to some of these questions on this weeks episode. Enjoy?
