Join Kevin and Tim as they take a walk, carrying heavy weights and engaging in lively conversations about books, life, and other intriguing topics.

    In this episode, Tim and Kevin wrap up their discussion on the book 'Mountain Man,' concluding our exploration of zombies and sharing their thoughts on monsters. Spoiler alert: they both agree that mummies definitely fall into the zombie category—luckily, Thomas missed that debate!

  • Ep. 19: The First Law Finale

    Send us a text

    Kevin and Tim discuss the first law trilogy. A long awaited episode for those who have been with us since the beginning. We do apologize this took so long and weren't sure we were going to be coming back. Thanks to some fans and messages we received we have decided it was absolutely worth continuing this project. 

    This episode isn't exactly how we anticipated it going, but we are getting back on track and will have lots more adventures to come. 

    Since we are re-debuting in the month of October we have decided to do a one off Zombie book. We have yet to decide which Zombie book to read and will let you know when we do!

    Stay tuned and thanks for listening!
