An excerpt of unused material taken from episode 21 of What the Folklore? In which we read "Owl", wherein we deliberate on the the security of puplic libraries vis a vis heists, have a book-burn-off, check in on the goings-on of Pottermore, develop a Randomly Grandma Phrase Generator, and definitely don't watch Rock-a-Doodle.

If you think that enlightenment is about self-control, spirituality, and connectedness, you're wrong. You're so wrong.

In episode 18 of What the Folklore? we read chapter 5 of "The Journey West."
