We begin today's episode with some "what if" talk regarding famous writers. For instance, what if Robert E. Howard lived for another 30 or 40 years? How much would his writing style have evolved? What if Stephen King stopped writing in the 1980s? You get the idea.

After that, we cover some defunct (dead) book genres. We discuss whether the mentioned genres are actually dead, why some deserve to be dead, and which ones we want to make a comeback.
