In this episode, the two Matts reminisce about school and old professors, work as masters at a plot ninja dojo, wonder about the order of the alphabet, and talk more about less mainstream works of writing with this episode about blogs and essays. What should one's mindset be when starting a blog? How should one arrange an essay? How many sources or citations should an essay have? How mad will Matt Donald's college professor be when he stumbles across this podcast and hears Donald talk about how much he hated his class? We discuss it all, with excellent, peer-reviewed quality, and talk about Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, various stand-up specials, and Matt David's incident in Japan where he contributed to the construction of a safety railing.
