  • Beware of SPOILERS!

    Really interesting deep dive into all things Dune, but was so disappointed to hear so many spoilers already in the first episode. Later I see they buried that fact into the last paragraph of their long show description. Should be the first line in all caps. Might be good to listen AFTER you’ve read all the books, just beware. Ruined it for me :(

It’s especially bad when they’re talking speculatively about future events or what a character might be planning or t... more

  • What I was looking for.

    An excellent spoiler free podcast. With the perfect mix of humor to get you through all the heavy philosophical stuff the Frank Herbert is known for. Great conversational banter. Join in to learn all about other famous Gurneys besides the lumpy Halleck version.

  • I've got no idea how many people listen, but I assume at least a Arrakien Palace full (If not, they definitely deserve it). Tons of fun and alot of great entertainment.
