- You are a book club?
But you are mad that book one of a TRILOGY doesn’t give you the answers you want??? Yet you are ok with a tv show leaving you hanging because you can continue watching it? Lazy. You are a book club so read the rest of the series! And you have at least one female listening, so stop with p$&sy and p@rn talk.

2 hard core sci fi geeks who really enjoy each others company, both of them can be quite funny and a lot of very interesting thoughts given. First time I listened to the show I listened for 5 straight hours with an occasional giggle and smirk from them. Worth listening to for sure. Shall be a regular listener
