Our final Bonus Episode of Season 1! We made it people. Thank you to all of those people that have stuck with us since the get go. Alex and Joe hope that you have enjoyed the show thus far. And hopefully you all enjoy this special episode that we put together.

This book is different. Alex read House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski. Be careful reading this book. It could drive you mad. This is definitely a one of a kind book. Written in a way that has never been done before and probably never be seen again. Listen to Alex describe to Joe the journey into madness that he took, and how he was able to make it out alive. Or did he?

Just a reminder. No reading assignment for next month. Alex and Joe will have a wrap up episode on the 5th though. Make sure to listen as we will discuss some fun things about Season 1 and give an update for Season 2. That's right, you read that right. We will be coming back after a short break with more book discussions. We have already started reading and recording episodes. So make sure to tune in and find out what to expect for the coming months.

Please help us grow this podcast. The more listeners we get the more we can do. While Alex and Joe love talking books it is nice to know we aren't the only two out there blathering into the universe.

This is our season finally for our 16 picks! And boy is it a doozy. Joe tried to warn Alex that it might be better to split this one into two parts. But he didn't listen. More fool him. So now you get to enjoy your second long episode in a row. We promise we will be better about it next season.

In this episode Joe and Alex read the book Use of Weapons by Iain M. Banks. This is the third book in Banks's Culture series. Don't worry though, you don't need to have read the first two to know what is going on in this story. Joe makes some pretty bold claims and Alex does his best to tamper them down. It is amazing to both your humble hosts how they both had different interpretations of the Culture civilization and their methods. Joe does a fantastic job of defending his point of view, if I say so myself.

No book next month. We will be having a Season 1 wrap up episode instead. There will be one more Bonus Episode on the 20th though. So keep your eyes peeled for that. It is going to be a doozy. But not 2 hours long. We promise.

Welcome to another bonus episode. Today Alex and Joe bring Adam back to discuss song lyrics. Poor Adam still hasn't figured out that if he doesn't want to be on the pod, he needs to stop coming up with episode ideas. Of course the brothers have a sneaking suspicion that he enjoys it. It is a longer episode than normal, so we hope that it is still an interesting discussion. Each person picked five songs. We do have a playlist so that you can listen to the songs we are discussing. Stupid laws that prevent us from just playing the songs for you on the episode. Of course then this episode would be twice as long...

Welcome to our humble little podcast. Season one is rapidly coming to an end. This month is Alex's last pick! He gave Joe an easy one. The brothers buddy-read the lovely and epic children's novel The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo.

It is a book that Alex absolutely adores. One of those books that once he started reading, he couldn't put it down until he finished it in one sitting. Joe, he's a bit more cynical and wants more blood and glory in his readings, had a bit harder time getting through it. But even the black hearted older brother found some interesting topics that he couldn't stop yammering on.

Next month is Joe's last pick. He picked the space opera epic from Iain M Banks to wrap the season up. We will all be reading the third Culture book, Use of Weapons. If you have never read the other books in the series, that is okay. This series is designed to be able to be read out of order. So give it a look.

Today we have another fan recommendation! Sadly, it was a bit of a miss for Joe and Alex this time. Listen to how the brothers discuss how they are such book snobs that they couldn't get into something as interesting as a celebrity memoir. They do have a good time discussing it none the less. And they hope that they get more recommendations in the future. So don't feel shy giving us more books to read!

Our next regularly scheduled book is going to be out June 5th. It is the children's book The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo. So make sure that you have subscribed and get the updates on whatever podcast app that you use, so that you don't miss it.

We hope that you enjoy this episode.

Welcome to our latest episode. For this month, Alex and Joe read a strange novel by one of Joe's favorite people of all time. We read The Liar by Stephen Fry. This is kind of a spy novel but not. It is also a coming of age novel, but again not. One thing that it is, is funny. Or at least Joe thinks that. Give us a listen to find out why Alex thinks otherwise. And see who you agree with by reading along with us.

Next month will be another of Alex's picks. The critically acclaimed children's novel, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo. That will be out June 5th. And don't forget to tune in on the 20th of every month for our bonus episodes. The one this month will be another fan recommendation. Excitement!

Hello all!

Today's bonus episode was a fan suggestion. This super fan had the request that we read a lost classic called The Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread by Don Robertson. This story is one of the novels that got the great Stephen King interested in writing. Give it a listen to see what two lesser known brothers think of it.

Our next regularly scheduled book is going to be The Liar by another great Stephen. Stephen Fry that is. It will be out May 5th, so make sure you remember to give it a download so that we know that you guys are listening.

We hope that you enjoy this episode.

This month Alex and Joe discuss another controversial book. Today we are talking about The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie. We don't delve too deeply into the controversy about the author, as neither of us looked too hard into it. It didn't really have much to do with the assigned reading. What we do discuss though, is how much we both enjoyed rereading this fun little story about an Indian leaving the reservation. We hope you get something out of this discussion also.

Next month we will be reading The Liar by Stephen Fry. This is a Joe pick. It is a bit more of a complicated reading than this months read. But Joe believes a good change of pace. We will see what Alex has to say about that.

And don't forget to be on the lookout for our "bonus" episode. We put those out on the 20th of every month. These are book discussions that are generated by other people. Some books we end up loving. Some we don't. Most of them we haven't read before, so it is always an exciting adventure for Joe and Alex to dive into none-the-less.

Please help us grow this podcast. The more listeners we get the more we can do. While Alex and Joe love talking books it is nice to know we aren't the only two out there blathering into the universe.
