22: Life On The Edge
This book is a bit scatterbrained. Jen ain't too subtle and our characters ain't too original. Join us for more Bright Places next time! https://archive.org/download/22-life-on-the-edge/22%20Life%20On%20The%20Edge.mp3

21: You Can Never Have Too Many Adjectives
This podcast is heart-wrenching. Devastating. Illuminating. Breathtaking. Romantic. Quirky. Exhilarating. Hauntingly beautiful. Whatever other words will make teen girls pay attention. Welcome back to the cast folks; we're cracking open "All The Bright Places," by Jennifer Niven. It's a…

20: The Resurrection of Cap
Hugh Winkleman was this book's Judas Iscariot. Prove me wrong. https://archive.org/download/20theressurectionofcap/20%20The%20Ressurection%20of%20Cap.mp3
-
19: The Hugh Rebellion
Long story short- Cap's the real villain and we'll all be glad when he's gone. https://archive.org/download/19thehughrebellion/19%20The%20Hugh%20Rebellion.mp3

18: A Random Bus Hijacking
This podcast is now an exclusively Hugh-focused podcast. If you people can't sleep at night knowing this, well sorry, better buckle up. This is the future, freakazoids. Also, a simple bus ride becomes a Dirty Harry movie when we least expect it. So that's fun. Oh, by the way, Todd is criminally...

17: The Year of Todd
Our current book, Schooled by Gordon Korman, features a protagonist who is a harmless little baby kitten who's just as innocent as the driven snow... but he's about to come face to face with the one-man force of nature known as Todd Terrific (aka The Cougar, aka Zach, aka A Living Legend Among…

16: Starbucks Scoffing
Have you ever been to the Rez? It's sooooo exotic. Anyway, welcome to the final part of Let it Snow, "The Patron Saint of Pigs" by Lauren Myracle, also known as "Testing the Audience's Patience." If you're really into listening to teen drama and just hanging around watching someone's shift at…

15: The Great Waffle House Race
Alternate title: It's A Sad Sad Sad Sad World... How is it that John Green's work succeeds in only depressing/boring his readers and painting an ever darker picture of a damaged lonely little man? We'll have to answer that later, as we're too busy racing to the local Waffle House through the snow...
-
14: A Creepy Christmas Tale
'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the book, John Green decided to start writing under a pen name... Yes, we're reading through the book "Let it Snow" this holiday season, wherein John and two other authors who sound suspiciously like John have crafted a tale of... something. If…

13: Speedrunning the Last Half
This book is so bad we just want to be DONE. https://archive.org/download/13speedrunningthelasthalf_20191118/13%20Speedrunning%20the%20Last%20Half.mp3
-
12: This Book Actively Hates Us
Our summation of An Abundance of Katherines so far: one long sustained miserable groan. How much longer can we hold out? Will John Green stop using the word "fug"? Who are the REAL racists in this made up town? And why does reading this feel like being hit in the head with a dull shovel? Let's…

11: Excellence in Young Adult Literature
John Green's creepier side comes out as this book goes from zero to uncomfortable real fast... also, Maclane has a cold but don't let that distract you. https://archive.org/download/11excellenceinyoungadultliterature/11%20Excellence%20in%20Young%20Adult%20Literature.mp3

10: An Abundance of John Green
Releasing two episodes in one day? Is that even legal?! At any rate, we're following up Larry with the long anticipated (by us) John Green book "An Abundance of Katherines". There's gonna be so many Katherines you won't be able to keep up!...
-
09: The Final Blasphemy
(Just for the record, the title was Mac's idea) One vision quest, fake suicide, and journey to Walden later, we've finally finished Larry's gospel... and frankly it's not very good if we're being completely honest. https://archive.org/download/09thefinalblasphemy/09%20The%20Final%20Blasphemy.mp3
-
08: Norman Bates vs. Hacker Granny
Our protagonist is a very mentally unbalanced individual who could kill at any moment. Please do your best to avoid him. Also, watch out for those hip tech savvy grandmas who moonlight as internet vigilantes. They're everywhere....
-
07: A Cozy Dirt Hole to Call Home
Larry's so-called Gospel is off to a very revolting start... Because it turns out our hero is kind of a creepy dude. He silently rages about his friendzoned status, rails against those stupid meat eating jocks, and moonlights as a weird little cave troll on the weekends. But that won't deter us...
-
06: A Very Loose Definition of Gospel
Hey howdy hey there, look who's back. Yes, the recovery from that John Green book took over a year, but we're finally in a healthy place again... just don't mention roller coasters around Maclane or he'll start weeping. Anyhow, we have a new book! It's "The Gospel According to Larry" by Janet...
-
05: By the Way, I'm Dying Now
Hold on, you say it hasn't been a month between episodes this time? Everything's all outta whack today. Anyway, we finally finished the book and boy oh boy John Green is determined to make his characters more and more unlikable in the few pages we have left. Oh, and Augustus is dying now. Did we...
-
04: The Thing About Eggs...
Gosh, been a while, but are you really surprised? Our heroes are plugging along, as this installment covers the meeting of the neckbeardy writer Hazel loves, the thrilling trip to the Anne Frank house, and a deep burning rage involving breakfast foods. Cancer is fun!...
-
03: This Episode is Utterly Unprecedented
Yeah, we didn't record for a month. So sue us. Life is busy, ok? If it makes things any better, the heroes of our story are getting more and more annoying by the chapter. Listen in and see for yourself....
-
02: A Creep & His Broken Roller Coaster
Our story gets kicked off with an unlikable protagonist, a pretentious boyfriend, and too many metaphors to count. Come for the awkwardly framed dialogue, stay for the deep theological discussions!...
-
01: The Fault in Our Books
Join us as we take a deep deep dive into the works of John Green, Teenage America's favorite nerdy author. We're reading "The Fault in Our Stars" and we fully expect it to be as unintentionally funny and loathsomely pretentious as we hope....
