Bookclub

In this episode of Bookclub, we take a deep dive into Dr. Seuss's sex-filled piece of capitalist propaganda entitled  One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish.  Did you know Dr. Seuss advocated the enslavement of the denizens of Whoville? It's true, we swear. Next book: Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins

Did you know Yuri Gagarin was the first human in space? Too many people don't know that fact, and it makes us sad. Anyway, we take a look at Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis in this episode. We cover topics ranging from the American education system to American Family Radio to Wolfenstein 3D. So, basic Bookclub fare. Enjoy! Next book: One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish by Dr. Seuss

In this episode of Bookclub, we take a trip through Cormac McCarthy's post-apocalyptic wasteland in The Road . People get eaten, children get taught how to eat a barrel, and all hope for humanity gets lost... Or does it?   Next book: Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi

On this episode of Bookclub, we find ourselves washed upon the pleasant shore of Galapagos by Kurt Vonnegut. Little did we know that it would be an instant favorite. Enjoy!

Which way to the beaches of Maine? Well... you can head east as far as Bath and then... let me think. Or you could hop a Greyhound and go down the interstate 'til you come to...nah, wait a minute. Then there's that Hodgman fella's book that ain't bad at all, but it's... You could listen to this here podcast about that Hodgman fella's book... Come to think of it, you could read the book and then li...

On this episode, we club an obscure moving picture book titled "Game of Thrones: Season One." You've probably never heard of it. Enjoy!

Pita bread? Check. Tomato and onion? You better believe it. And you know we got some of that yogurty goodness that is tzatziki. And to finish off the perfect gyro, Elijah brought us Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal. He hoisted it up for the Bookclub to rotate it and roast it evenly from all sides. So come on down and get yourself a slice off this cone-shaped hunk of podca...

Grab your paddles and sunscreen, clubbers! We're going on the ultimate 68-minute podcast adventure, as we journey through Don Starkell's Paddle to the Amazon: The Ultimate 12,000-Mile Canoe Adventure.  We're joined by Misti Smith (friend of the show) who recommended this book, the club's first foray into non-fiction. Enjoy!

In this 'sode of Bookclub, Elijah gets stubborn, Dillon gets pedantic, Ansel tries to be diplomatic, the eagle soars, and The Color of Magic by Terry Pratchett gets thoroughly clubbed. It's a hoot and a half!*   * Again, we ran a little long on this one, coming in around 78 minutes. We apologize for the extra entertainment.

It's that time of year again. The leaves are changing colors, the weather has that familiar chill, the thin veil that separates our world from that of ghosts, ghouls, and demons has evaporated, and podcasts put out Halloween themed episodes. We club some ghost stories, both personal and impersonal. It's some primo Halloween-o. Have a listen, if you dare! Mwahahahaha! Bookclub will be resuming its...

Hey kids! Have you been assigned Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter for your high school English class? If so, do I have a podcast for you! It's significantly shorter and much more entertaining, so don't even bother with that musty old tome. Just listen to this episode the night before the big test, and we guarantee you'll get a grade. Special thanks to the band HUGS for allowing us the use...

The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin won both the Hugo and Nebula Awards. Naturally, Bookclub rises to the occasion and makes butt jokes. We also discuss space communism, Star Trek, and Star Wars. It's more fun than shooting gift monkeys in a barrel! That's pretty wizard, Annie!   Special thanks to Jayson Backes and the fine folks at Wizzy Wow! for sponsoring this week's episode.

Ever wondered the quickest way to get grime out of a microwave? Or the proper way to prepare and eat a lobster? How about the best way to get soaked-in religion out of your overalls? The Club may or may not cover these topics this week as we club Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk.  

In this episode, the Club takes a look at The Lord of the Flies by William Golding. No one gets eaten. Or do they? There's only one way to find out!

In the very first episode of Bookclub, three phonies discuss a book about a phony that was written by another phony. It's phonies all the way down! Enjoy!
