The gang decides to redo a topic that Creative Consultant Tonya was not on the show for. They debate what books they would like to see covered by a different author.

I don’t know the age of these hosts, but if I had to guess I would say that they’re young enough to think people want to listen to them chatter from a place of ignorance and young enough to assume that no one will care about their ineptitude.

As far as the content of the podcast if you enjoy Dead Robot’s Society, you’ll definitely enjoy listening along. Derek and Bob are knowledgeable about the subjec... more
