  • The GRB-End
    Dec 24 2021

    The journey in to Love and Literature has come to an end. Join Mack & Lucky for an  adventure postmortem, where we look back on the ups, the downs, and the all arounds.

    An incredibly touching end to a once-in-a-lifetime-movie journey into the Romance genre.

    We have messages from our previous characters, a riveting duet featuring Mack and a special guest, the 2021 Nookie Awards, a final goodbye from our most trustworthy steward, and one final shocking revelation that will change romance forever...the revelation is that love conquers all, but you should still listen to the episode. 

    Thank you to ZakharValaha for their song Piano Moment, the perfect send off tune.
