Brianna and Caleb return to the bar to discuss another book, and this time Brianna's chosen a more topical offering! Not only was this book released in the same year that we're recording our episode on it, but additionally, the story is centered on a topic that is still (somewhat) in the cultural zeitgeist. Sequoia Nagamatsu's sophomore release is a collection of short stories that all build into one overarching narrative, taking place over the course of several decades during a global pandemic.

Strange Animation, Vol. 1 arrives at it's penultimate entry as Caleb and Isaac are joined by yet another guest for the series. As Eric was the first to bring a Linklater film to the podcast, and hadn't yet seen this one, it was only fitting that he join the boys to discuss the fully rotoscoped 2006 sci-fi cult hit, A Scanner Darkly.

Caleb and Isaac return to the bar, and shockingly, it's just the two of them this time! The last time we released a bonus episode like this was all the way back in January, with Bonus #31. And today we're gonna cover much of the same ground. Video Games are once again brought to the forefront of the discussion, which dovetails into some talk on Video Game Based movies. But as we're often prone to doing, we also take a detour back into the wrestling world to discuss Wrestlemania 38, Night One.
This episode was recorded over multiple occasions, but mainly on December 12th, 2021 and Apr. 22nd, 2022.

"What's this? Another Star Wars episode on the TNE feed? Is this a re-upload?"
No dear listener, it is not. Thanks to frequent co-host Sean, we are once again making our way through all the theatrically released Star Wars films! And also thanks to Sean, we are doing them in chronological order this time around, by starting with the first of the prequels! So join Caleb, Isaac, Eric and Sean as they wade their way through the 1999 smash hit, and help us find out if there's a Phantom Menace among us.
