Today we're taking a deep dive into the content of Jack Densmore, Jack Denmo, or just Denmo as some people know him. He originally started out as a prank and "interview" channel and has slowly got worse over the years - today I'm asking, how is he still even allowed on Youtube?

MrBeast and James Patterson have just released a new fiction book together titled 'The Most Dangerous Games' and, despite likely not actually being written by either of them, it's as stupid as it sounds. This is the first part of my review so make sure you subscribe to watch part 2 which will be out very soon! Further Reading / Watching: Squid Game (2021) The Eight Show (2024) Alice (1...

Freida McFadden is back with another book. I don't know how she's writing them so quickly but I cannot keep up. This time it's 'The Divorce' which was a rollercoaster of emotions for me - major anxiety followed by uncontrollable laughter at how silly this book is. It's a lot and I'm happy to bring you all on this journey with me! Sources and Further Reading: https://www...

Today we're talking about Tiktok's 'Doormat Mom' Laura Wellington and her book 'Doormat Mom, No More!' - sorry I'm so late posting this, it's honestly taken me 2 months from reading it to actually finish and film the script. It's an exhausting one. Originally published on Youtube in 2025.

SenLinYu's novel Alchemised just keeps getting worse and today we're reviewing part 2 of the novel in detail and I have A LOT to say. Sorry I'm uploading this in 2 parts but Spotify did not like the full 5 hour long videos!

Insecure, emotional, not smart enough - call it whatever you like but these three from the Reality Check Podcast had no idea how to hold their own in a conversation with someone intelligent and they let themselves get too angry and over-emotional. Here's what happened. Plus let's start taking bets now: How long before a bunch of their fans get mad about the title and tell me to just 'd...

Today I'm joined by the wonderful Alizee to play a game where she tries to guess the book based on the 1 star reviews I provide. If you want to play along, leave your guesses down in the comments!

Alchemised by SenLinYu is a Romance Fantasy novel which recently won the 2026 British Book Award for Best Sci Fi / Fantasy Book, beating legends like R.F. Kuang and Joe Abercrombie. Today I ask "HOW?!?!?!!?" as I dive deep into this absolute misogynistic mess and pick apart Part One of this 1,000+ page novel which unsurprisingly started off as, equally harmful, Harry Potter Fan Fiction....

Today I'm reviewing the cringe-inducing mess that is 'Trigger Warning' by William W. Johnstone and it's BAD. This is the most laughably terrible book I've read in a long time but it's also the most fun I've had reviewing a bad book in years. Come along for the (very bumpy) ride!
