Bookclub

In this 'sode of Bookclub, Elijah gets stubborn, Dillon gets pedantic, Ansel tries to be diplomatic, the eagle soars, and The Color of Magic by Terry Pratchett gets thoroughly clubbed. It's a hoot and a half!*

*Again, we ran a little long on this one, coming in around 78 minutes. We apologize for the extra entertainment.

It's that time of year again. The leaves are changing colors, the weather has that familiar chill, the thin veil that separates our world from that of ghosts, ghouls, and demons has evaporated, and podcasts put out Halloween themed episodes. We club some ghost stories, both personal and impersonal. It's some primo Halloween-o. Have a listen, if you dare! Mwahahahaha!

Bookclub will be resuming its regularly scheduled programming this Friday, November 3rd, with our clubbing of The Color of Magic by Terry Pratchett.

Hey kids! Have you been assigned Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter for your high school English class? If so, do I have a podcast for you! It's significantly shorter and much more entertaining, so don't even bother with that musty old tome. Just listen to this episode the night before the big test, and we guarantee you'll get a grade.

Special thanks to the band HUGS for allowing us the use of their song "(He's Got That) Gamma Vision." Stay tuned all the way through the end to hear this track that your parents definitely don't want you to listen to.

Special special thanks to Misti Smith and the fine folks at Sew Good for sponsoring this episode.

Just a heads up, this 'sode runs a little longer than usual at around 75 minutes.

Thank you, and God bless.

The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards. Naturally, Bookclub rises to the occasion and makes butt jokes. We also discuss space communism, Star Trek, and Star Wars. It's more fun than shooting gift monkeys in a barrel! That's pretty wizard, Annie!

Special thanks to Jayson Backes and the fine folks at Wizzy Wow! for sponsoring this week's episode.

Ever wondered the quickest way to get grime out of a microwave? Or the proper way to prepare and eat a lobster? How about the best way to get soaked-in religion out of your overalls? The Club may or may not cover these topics this week as we club Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk.

In this episode, the Club takes a look at The Lord of the Flies by William Golding. No one gets eaten. Or do they? There's only one way to find out!

In the very first episode of Bookclub, three phonies discuss a book about a phony that was written by another phony. It's phonies all the way down! Enjoy!
