Long time best friends Tadd and Peter tackle all things Geek and Pop culture that they love and enjoy.

Geekery Abides

A book club for Fantasy-Fiction and Nerd-like reading where we crack open a beer as we crack open our books!

This is Epilagers, our Nerdy Book &amp; Beer Club, where we explore fantasy fiction books while sampling some amazing craft beer. We try out each book in a two part series so that you can read along with us. We will hit on topics such as writing style, character development, and world building all while trying to decipher the plot and make accurate and sometimes hilarious predictions.


We&#39;re in the midst of Season 1: &#34;Dystopian Culture&#34;
Focusing on including books such as:  The Maze Runner, Bartimaeus, the Hunger Games, Mortal Engines, Ender&#39;s Game, Uglies, Delirium, and more.

Part 1, the Prologue, we discuss how we’re enjoying the style and set up of the plot, discuss how we want the narration to develop, and make hopeful and possibly outrageous plot predictions based on the first 25% of the book. Part 2, the Epilogue, will be a quick summary of the book and many discussion topics all with book spoilers and out thoughts on the plot. So Spoiler haters beware! Join us on our journey and remember the best way to tackle Adulthood is with a book in one hand and a beer in the other. 

Find us online on Twitter and Instagram @EpilagersPod or join the discussion with the hashtag #Epilagers.

Classified as a juvenile crime drama but written and acted with more adult style than most of the breed, &#34;The Green Hornet&#34;---whose protagonist fought crime by infiltrating or even partnering (initially) with known criminal operations, which deceive police into believing him a wanted criminal himself---was the creation of George W. Trendle and Fran Striker, the brains and head writer behind &#34;The Lone Ranger&#34; (whose protagonist, according to storyline, was the great-uncle of Britt Reid, the heir who assumed control of the Daily Sentinel newspaper publisher and takes the crimefighting guise of the Green Hornet). The show originated from Detroit WXZY in 1936 and was picked up for network broadcast by Mutual in 1938; NBC Blue Network (later ABC) picked up the show in 1939. &#34;The Green Hornet&#34; left radio as an actively-produced series in 1952, though reruns of several shows were known to have aired as late as 1954. Britt Reid/The Green Hornet: Al Hodge (1936-1943); Donovan Faust (1943); Bob Hall (1944-51); Jack McCarthy (1951-1952). Kato: Tokutaro Hayashi (a.k.a. Raymond Toyo); Rollon Parker; Michael Tolan. Lenore Case, Reid&#39;s secretary and occasional Sentinel photographer: Leonore Allman. Michael Axford, a Sentinel reporter: Jim Irwin (1936-1938); Gil Shea (1938-1952). Ed Lowry, another Sentinel reporter: Jac Petruzzi. Newsboy (who closed each episode, almost invariably, by shouting the headlines after the crime is solved, ending habitually with &#34;Green Hornet Still at Large!!&#34;): Rollon Parker.

《水浒传》 　　《水浒传》是一部长篇英雄传奇，是中国古代长篇小说的代表作之一，是以宋江起义故事为线索创作出来的。宋江起义发生在北宋徽宗时期，《宋史》的《徽宗本纪》、《侯蒙传》、《张叔夜传》等都有记载。从南宋起，宋江起义的故事就在民间流传，《醉翁谈录》记载了一些独立的有关水浒英雄的传说，《大宋宣和遗事》把许多水浒故事联缀起来，和长篇小说已经很接近。元代出现了不少水浒戏，一批梁山英雄作为舞台形象出现。《水浒传》是宋江起义故事在民间长期流传基础上产生出来的，吸收了民间文学的营养。《水浒传》是我国人民喜爱的古典长篇白话小说之一。它产生于明代，是在宋、元以来有关水浒的故事、话本、戏曲的基础上，由作者加工整理、创作而成的。全书以宋江领导的农民起义为主要题材，艺术地再现了中国古代人民反抗压迫、英勇斗争的悲壮画卷。作品充分暴露了封建统治阶级的腐朽和残暴，揭露了当时尖锐对立的社会矛盾和“官逼民反”的残酷现实，成功地塑造了鲁智深、李逵、武松、林冲、阮小七等一批英雄人物。小说故事情节曲折，语言生动，人物性格鲜明，具有高度的艺术成就。
