  • Episode 65: Super Cool Best Boy Club

    Do you know what the sound of a writer missing his deadline is? It sounds like the end of this story "The Story of the Hero Makoma," which has some pretty crazy elements ramping up to a whole lot of nothing. In other words, par for the course for us.

  • Episode 63: Thumblejourney MacKinnerny

    Our story choices this week were largely resting on a percentage calculation of there being a boat in the story, which lead us to some interesting places concerning a kind of gender-swapped Thumbelina, and his friend (or relative?) Thumblejourney MacKinnerny. We're reading "Thumbling as Journeyman."

  • Episode 61: The One About the Bus

    So... suffice to say that this one got a little out of hand, because of a single word that was probably mistranslated. Just gird yourselves. We did actually read a story this week, and it was "The Old Woman and Her Dumpling"
