  • A Monster Calls Book Review
    Sep 5 2025

    Alex has picked a powerful book for this month. We read A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness. It is a middle school read with lots of pictures that are stunning and add to the text amazingly. A book truly worth reading. Even the curmudgeon, Joe, was impressed with this book.

    Next month Joe has picked a book that he doesn't love, but has had trouble forgetting. And really, isn't that what books are supposed to do? Stick with us in ways that we would never have expected? Joe will be having us all read The Wanting Seed by Anthony Burgess. Who would have guessed, the author who wrote A Clockwork Orange would be our first repeat author. Both brothers would have put money down for some of the more popular authors they have already covered... So, make sure you put down a notification for next month, so you don't forget to give it a listen.

    Just as a reminder, we post twice monthly. On the 5th we post our book of the month. And on the 20th we will provide you lovely listeners with a bonus episode (as noted, the brothers are both becoming very busy with life, so this schedule may be changing; please stay tuned for any updates that they will be making). Please make sure to subscribe so that you never miss an episode. And please be active listeners and comment and rate on how you think we are doing. All the details below.

    Please help us grow this podcast. The more listeners we get the more we can do. While Alex and Joe love talking books it is nice to know we aren't the only two out there blathering into the universe.

  • Bonus Episode: Movie to Book Comparison of Fear and Loathing
    Aug 20 2025

    Joe and Alex have a super special bonus episode for everyone today. We had a fan request for a book, and we decided to combine the book with a movie critique.

    The book (and movie) that we are covering today is, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S. Thompson. A drug fueled ride of extremes that will make you sick with envy. Or make you want to puke with all the excess. Either way, we hope that you enjoy our discussion. In the comments on Spotify, give us some more book to movie comparisons you might enjoy. Alex and Joe will do their best to get to them.

    Next month the brothers are covering the moving and iconic book A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness. It is a can't miss kind of book. So mark it in your calendars, September 5th, the episode will be airing.

    Just as a reminder, we post twice monthly. On the 5th we post our book of the month. And on the 20th we will provide you lovely listeners with a bonus episode (as noted, the brothers are both becoming very busy with life, so this schedule may be changing; please stay tuned for any updates that they will be making).

  • Let's Pretend this Never Happened Book Review
    Aug 5 2025

    Joe is back to torturing everyone again with his memoirs. He swears this one is better though. Alex may need some convincing. This month the brothers read Let's Pretend this Never Happened: A Mostly True Memoir by Jenny Lawson. It is a rip-roaring life to be shared, full of mental illness, awkward childhoods, and things that can only happen in Texas. (Just a note from Alex: DO NOT LISTEN TO THE AUDIOBOOK!!! Seriously. It's bad.)

    Next month, Alex is picking one of his favorite books of all time. Let's see if Joe is able to tear down another book and trample all over his feelings. Alex has picked, A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness. That will be coming out on September 5th. So make sure you mark the date on your calendar, it's bound to be a special one.

    Just as a reminder, we post twice monthly. On the 5th we post our book of the month. And on the 20th we will provide you lovely listeners with a bonus episode (as noted, the brothers are both becoming very busy with life, so this schedule may be changing; please stay tuned for any updates that they will be making).
