LOVE IT! I used to listen these on It Could Happen Here and Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff podcasts, until I just noticed that one book missed part 3 on podcasts, went looking for a way to contact them, or Margaret, ended on coolzone.com, found that the Book Club is available as it's own separate podcast, and IT HAD THE MISSING PART 3 I was looking for! I already knew I would rate this ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ before I found it has its own dedicated podcast. I love what is read and I love the commentary!
Margaret’s reading is fantastic, soothing in a time of horror or decay, and so absolutely needed right now. Also a great introduction to new writers that I didn’t know about! Thank you thank you thank you!
Please do more pathfinder episodes. I want Margaret to get to play her himbo character. I Used to play a lot of pathfinder so the episodes were super nostalgic and I had a great time.
Iheartmedia, if you’re listening, more pathfinder pleeeeease
Love the stories. Loved the pathfinder episodes. Would love even more if they made a whole new show out of playing pathfinder so we could have both! Please and thank you 🖤🖤🖤
