Honestly I would absolutely tell you right now but I don’t want to steal any thunder as I believe an announcement is planned.

I guess it’s the same way as people prefer ‘watching’ podcasts. I can’t do it, I struggle sometimes watching picture stories but love audio format

Thank you and fully agree! I grew up listening to audio books and radio plays all the time. This all came about because we were chatting about books and I said ‘oh I read that, well listened to it’ and the other person said ‘so you haven’t read it…’

Rude dude with a bad ‘rude I say!

I love this take. And the next time I see the dweeb who told me it was cheating I am going to tear him a new one! I knew it wasn’t cheating but couldn’t put my finger on why. I lose my words when wrapped up in an argument.

Agreed but I don’t have any accessibility issues. Just… busy?

Yes it’s cheating or yes it’s ok to say you read it?

I’ve not read the book but the first tv adaptation of IT with the legendary Tim Curry as Pennywise, now that still gives me the willies.

A cerebral take but I will accept it. Silent Spring was a pretty big deal in my life so I’ll give this a go

Ok so it’s not just because you read it too young. It shall be added to the list

Oh jeez. Honestly anything about a nuclear holocaust and I’m kind of done for. Even the flashback/dream scenes of terminator I struggle with

Tried dropping a heelys reference at the end of the podcast. Nick was not impressed and cut it from our novel.

I’ll hold you to that :^ )

It may not seem like much to miss but given the whole scene is supposed to frame Eisenhorn’s mistrust of the admiral this does actually add some nice context

Are you kidding me!? You are an absolute champion thank you!
