Episode 69 - I Seen All Good People
Added 2020-02-27 18:49:49 +0000 UTCIn the middle third of Moon People our hero David Braymer... does NOT go to the moon, or meet people from the moon. But fittingly for this number episode, he does get busy as hell!
Following what must have been the most erotic Red Lobster dinner in all of recorded history, Cheral is consumed with lust by her Rocket Man, who remains extremely casual about both his sex and going into space for a decade.
Which turns out to be kind of a crappy decision! Because for every promised medium-to-elaborate apartment that turns out to actually be elaborate (Score!), you get weird quirks like gravity not working, or a ponderous permitting process required if you want to bring chickens on board (I thought this was Amercia!)
We'll also examine David's habit of asking the Dumbest First Question Possible, which turns out not to be unique to just him on his family tree. All this plus Real or FanFic, Listener Mail, and DSOTW!
For next time, finish the damn book.

The book takes place in 2048 and the launch is on Halloween, a Monday in the book. October 31 in 2048 is apparently a Saturday though.

2020-02-28 20:02:18 +0000 UTCPerhaps I'm the only one here, but the more I read from Dale M. Courtney in this book and on his Facebook page, the more I really doubt his national security credentials.

2020-02-28 17:42:53 +0000 UTCI finished this silly book in one sitting and still couldn't tell you which sentences were real or which were fanfic except for the mash potato slurry.

2020-02-28 02:44:23 +0000 UTCIt's probably Clinean of me to be delighted every time Mike or Conor mentions "Setting Up a Room."

2020-02-28 02:29:35 +0000 UTCMaybe I missed it, but I'm shocked no one noticed that the man who had a lot to say about the nobility of Native American tribes is named Dale. Perhaps Trucking Through Time was a biography this whole time.

2020-02-27 20:33:54 +0000 UTCI hadn't read this section yet when I remembered this morning that they would be recording today...so after lunch I sat in my car and read the whole assignment in about 20-30 minutes. Immediately after I finished, I got the notification of this episode going up. Even blowing through it, I STILL picked up on most of the same dumb sentences that Mike & Conor brought up.
