October 24, 2020 Episode 39: Nirvana in Fire

Nirvana in Fire

* English dubbed version [https://www.viki.com/tv/36593c-nirvana-in-fire-english-dubbed-version] - only found out about it after the episode was recorded, and neither of us has watched it, so we can't guarantee the quality

Parting words
This has been a delightful four years, thank you for sticking with us! As we said on the show, send us a line, don't be shy, tell us what you think! Although we are not planning on doing any more episodes, don't unsubscribe; you don't know what might surprise you.
Anyway, bye again, and know that Peter and I will continue to discuss books, movies and TV shows until the wee hours of the morning, even if we don't record it.
