    I or AI? (Halloween Spooktacular)
    Oct 16 2022

    In a terrifying divergence from form, the Big Bad Books Boys are taking a break from Old Uncle Cline's Almanac of References to explore the lengths, breadths, and depths of horror fiction. Not real fiction (??), mind you. No, more a collection of random snippets written either by a robot, or by an AI. Declan is left - as are you, dear listener, - to determine which is which.

    Real Estate: Chapter 18 (Ready Player Two)
    Aug 7 2022

    Ernest continues to defy all expectations, by setting a third consecutive chapter in the delightfully underwhelming world of Shermer, with still no end in sight!

    This time we have RDJ being coerced, we’ve got DUBI and Doobage galore, and we have our most upsetting visit (yet) to the horrors of Gulag Caledonia.

    It's been a minute since we checked-up on Wade and the Gunter Gang, but fortunately they're still on the very-interesting-and-not-remotely-laborious-to-read-about planet of Shermer!

    In this chapter, we explore all the ways Cline doesn't want to share the answer to his good puzzles, witness a needle-drop for the ages, and PAUSE (in a gamer way) to discover what manner of horrors have befallen Gulag Caledonia.
