Episode 14: A Clown that Sings (Self Roasts)
It's time for introspection! In a bid to prove how unqualified we really are, we both picked out a handful of pieces of literature that we ourselves wrote in our earlier years. Cameron picked some stories he wrote at the tender age of 7, while Jacob selected some poems from his more...

Page Burners | Episode 13: Yes Okay Spider Sex ("The Spiderses")
Oh boy, here we going fanfictioning again! This week we're looking at "The Spiderses" by Argembarger, a short satirically bad My Little Pony fanfiction that sets the standard for fanfiction everywhere. Join us for a full read of this touching story of change, heartbreak, and loss that is the...

Page Burners | Episode 12 - A Letter from the Master Servant of Lucifer ("The Best of Roosh Volume 2", Part 4)
Alt-Right pickup-artist Roosh V. has a treat in store for us in the form of a letter from the Global Elite detailing a conspiracy against humanity that he definitely, totally, certainly, 100%, maybe, positively didn't write himself and present as real! We are quite literally tearing through to…

Page Burners | Episode 11 - Stop Rejecting Me, It's Not Hot ("The Best of Roosh Volume 2", part 3)
Congratulations to the man who listens to this podcast, for he is probably not petitioning for rape to be legal. Also, congratulations to women, because they deserve some for putting up with the antics of men like alt-right pickup-artist Roosh V, who's hot takes bring on the murder vibes in his...

Page Burners | Episode 10 - An Epidemic of Thirsty Men ("The Best of Roosh Volume 2", part 2)
As every pick-up artist will tell you, the best way to get laid is definitely to... take away the basic human rights of all women? Join us as Roosh V attempts to roll back a century of society progress in under one hour in a neanderthal's guide to women! In this episode we'll discuss how…

Page Burners | Episode 9 - The Sociological Term is "Not Awesome" ("The Best of Roosh vol 2", pt1)
Have you ever wanted to pick up women, but also hate women? Then we've (unfortunately) got the handbook for you!

Page Burners | Episode 8 - I Do Some Books ("English as She is Spoke")
So you wanna speak like the English do, huh? Well lucky you, we have the perfect poorly-translated phrasebook for you! "English as She is Spoke" by Pedro Carolino is a 19th-Century marvel that is much-beloved for it's attempt to translate a French-Portuguese phrasebook to English by someone who...

Page Burners | Episode 7 - Non-Sexual Caterpillars ("Sonic High School", part 4)
What do baby speedboats, weaponized ball problems, and edgy tattoos all have in common? Well... they probably are featured in this episode of "Sonic High School", a terrible Sonic the Hedgehog fan fiction that probably doesn't get invited to family reunions anymore. In this episode, we'll discuss...

Page Burners | Episode 6 - I've Heard This Smell Before ("Sonic High School", Pt. 3)
From a world-ending testicular illness to robots crashing a nativity play in the spring, the fanfiction "Sonic High School" by DarkDoomFireMaster continues to be a beautiful mess. In this episode of Page Burners, we'll discuss the edibility of Chao, how to use heavy explosives in your school…

Page Burners | Episode 5 - A Salad of Anger, the Devil, and Lava ("Sonic High School", part 2)

Page Burners | Episode 4 - Against the Rules of Both Man and God ("Sonic High School" part 1)
In this episode, we try something different in the form of the infamous Sonic the Hedgehog fan fiction "Sonic High School" by DarkDoomFireMaster. Strap in, because this one will go off the rails very quickly! Along the way, we'll learn how to pronounce "...", how to survive prom night on a…

Page Burners | Episode 3 - "Prison to Penthouse", pt.3
It's the third episode of Page Burners, and we are certainly burnt out with "Prison to Penthouse" by Jeremy Sigal, an under-cooked self-help book that we really wish we could have sent back to the kitchen. We only got halfway through this book in the last two episodes, but dang it all, we're…

Page Burners | Episode 2 - "Prison to Penthouse", pt.2
In this episode of Page Burners, Cameron and Jacob continue with "Prison to Penthouse", AKA "Different Suits Same Stripes" by Jeremy Sigal, a redundant self help book that might've been somewhat decent had the author asked someone to read his rough draft first. Along the way, we'll learn about…

Page Burners | Episode 1 - "Prison to Penthouse", pt. 1
Welcome to the first ever episode of Page Burners! In this episode, Cameron and Jacob take a look at the strangely titled "Different Suits Same Stripes: From Prison to Penthouse: How the Rise to the Top is the Same" by Jeremy Sigal, a self-help book that has little to do with improving your life...
