Honestly, I have a lot more to say about the ALCS than I do about this book. Can y'all believe we couldn't get anyone to give us more than three innings on the mound until Valdez decides to take 8 full innings to get near 100 pitches? Where was this attitude the rest of the series? Two wins in Boston holy shit did we need that. And a travel day tomorrow! More rest! We might make it, y'all.

Here it is friends, Dune. It's odd to finally read a legendary space opera, and see the main character's name is Paul. What do parents name their kids after in the future? Will Paul McCartney still be in the ZeitGeist? Anyways, I want to do that subconscious-music-drug. Sounds dope. This episode was recorded the evening of 10.04.21. Post-production by Ashley Valle.

I think this book will end up being one of my favorites; something that I will always reference to myself. I hope others enjoyed it even half as much as I did.
