288: Bad Book Club: The Secret of Secrets Part I

Robert Langdon is back in another riveting entry of Dan Brown Mad Libs, and we're unfortunately also back to talk trash about it. You're never gonna guess what happens in this extremely formulaic, long, and boring race against the clock around Prague with another sexy lady scientist and another monstrous assassin and another shadowy organization pulling all the strings. Thought the pseudohistory and blatant misinformation in his other books were bad? Buckle up, because this one is pure pseudoscience, and you're about to hear the words "non-local consciousness" so many times you'll wish you had some non-local unconsciousness. Here's Part I. You'll get Part II next week and wish that you hadn't. Do you hate ads but love this show?
