Andy, Harold, and Josh are three grown-ass men looking back on the books that were either popular or taught in school in the days of their youth in the '90s, offering their totally grown-up opinions and analysis of the lessons they learned from them then and how those lessons hit now. Maybe in all this they will find out why they and their whole generation is so messed up, but probably not. At least they're reading. (Warning: Contains language and behavior not suitable for children. Listener discretion is advised.)
If there's any book that says "Give a shit, read some lit", it's Matilda. Is it just us, or was this book one of the absolute staples of growing up in the 90s? We all loved this book growing up, and in this episode we'll look at how it's held up to a modern reading, especially considering the author it came from.

Our first foray into the Fear Street series introduces us to the absolute winner that is Bobby Newkirk. He's got it all. Good looks, nice car, wealthy family, and an overabundance of self-assured charisma. Just a solid role model. He's also so good with the ladies, he's got a dating relationship with both of the hottest girls in school: the Wade Twins. But when he finds out that one sister might be murderously jealous and the other one might get him killed or imprisoned just by being with her, he's going to have to gaslight like he's never gaslit before just to stay alive. No problem for a stud like Bobby The Man, right? THE LINKS: Rate and review us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Audible!

Here we are again! Chapter 9 of the podcast begins afresh with new titles by previously visited authors, just not sequels to any books we've read.

Can you imagine having to climb thirty flights of stairs every day to get to class? Man, the kids in Mrs. Jewls's class must have well toned quads and cardiovascular systems of steel.

Andy, Harold, and Josh discuss Sir William Golding's story of a group of schoolboys who get stranded on an island with total freedom to do whatever they want. But when a society built on unenforceable rules is cast aside, can cooler heads prevail to control the situation or will harsh circumstances lead to harsher, inhumane consequences?

In the game Animal Crossing New Horizons, you build yourself a home on an island, collect resources, catch fish, befriend your animal neighbors, and spend ridiculous amounts of free time crafting items. So Island of the Blue Dolphins is basically the story of that game in a real world setting. Karana does all these things and more, logging 18 years of play time as she survives alone on the island that is her ancestral home as she waits to be picked up to be reunited with her people. Andy, Harold, and Josh are here to talk about it as we wonder just what abalone tastes like? THE LINKS: Rate and review us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Audible!
