We're back! With this two parter episode on the Hunger Games 2 and it sure is another Hunger Games. That's for sure. 10/10 lived up to the marketing. Will Katniss be able to either smother the flames of rebellion with her love or fan the flames of rebellion with her love? Will she become a symbol that President Snow wants to avoid killing so she doesn't become a martyr OR does he try to kill her because nuh uh? Why i...
Last year The Hunger Games clinched the WABie for Best in Show! So the boys are back to discuss the sequel: Catching Fire. This time the stakes are higher when an elderly man who smells like blood says that Katniss is about to get a lot of people killed and that she has to stop that. Then he kills a bunch of people and blames her. Then he sends in a new Head Peacekeeper to menace our plucky heroes. How will she handle this new thre...
A man dies and finds himself reincarnated into a Xian Xia world of martial arts mayhem, but all he wants is to be the best damn farmer the world has ever known. This is a recommendation from one of our patrons. Will it hold up? Or will he be expelled from The Wordy Book Sect?

It's that time of year again! The boys hand out awards and review our year which felt like at least 2 or 3 years. Did you now we read The Deep Sky THIS year? How about The Honjin Murders? That was also 2024. That feels like at least 2023, maybe 2022. I am blown away by that, it's insane. Also Nate gets drunk and we hand out awards.

Ben thought there was no topic Nate could tackle that would rattle him. But Ben was wrong. Nate, armed with secret knowledge of Ben's weaknesses, has constructed an episode that finally and properly angers his co-host.

The gang makes it to the inn of The Prancing Pony in the village of Bree. Gandalf is no where to be found. Frodo succeeds on a performance check. Fails on an acrobatics check. Then fails on a bluff check. Everyone is now in mortal danger.

Did you really believe that it was over? Did you think you could watch me, share me, READ ME without consequence? Oh no. It isn't over. It will never be over. As sure as the sun rises in the East, as sure as this world ends in fire, Ben. Drowns. You have drowned him. And now you will rejoice in celebration of his unholy baptism.
