Episode 44 - Male Tasting Fingers
Added 2019-05-31 17:48:15 +0000 UTCThis episode is nearly two hours long, despite the fact that if you cut out all the sex from these five chapters, all our characters did was buy shoes and play chess. Oh, and they saw a deer.
Anyway, there's a ton of fun details to dive into. We've got a word count guessing game, an alternative ending for a book, a deleted scene that finds Maxim green with envy, fanfic, emails, and dumb sentences! Plus we'll kick things off with an announcement about the return of an old friend of the podcast. So cut a slice of banoffee, fire up some shitty mellow artist on your Sonos, and listen now!
For next time read up to page 388, thru chapter 24

I'd like to start a GoFundMe to have an audiobook version produced where all of Maxim's italicized thoughts are read by Billy Bob Thornton in his Sling Blade voice.

2019-06-06 20:57:48 +0000 UTCAh. Okay. Casting makes sense then. I got unlazy and looked it up. The voice of Anna Lindstadt in Wonder Woman Mythos was Kate Foster. Dead ringer including accent.

2019-06-06 11:25:11 +0000 UTCI think she played that Mr. B. Natural guy on that MYSTERY SCIENCE show--you know, with those robots who make fun of the bad movies that's on the Netflix now. I believe she was married to that stupid looking dingus who played that Mike Nelson character.

2019-06-05 17:04:12 +0000 UTCThe female member of your 372 Pages Troupe sounds super familiar. Did she voice a character in a Wonder Woman audio book?

2019-06-03 14:24:53 +0000 UTCHa! Californian sandwich! Once I saw it on the menu in Sydney. I messaged my San Francisco friend asking if CaliforniaN is even a thing (in California - or anywhere outside of that Sydney cafe). Guess what he said - it must be something with avocado π. Ohhh, so it is an _avocado_ sandwich/ wrap/ salad! Got you! P.S. I've been enjoying my hm... Californian toasts for years, until a local Australian business genius proclaimed that this Californian fruit is the main reason why millennials will never be able to afford a house. It became a cultural meme, and all toasts, wraps and sandwiches, formerly known as California[n], now have creative names like "No mortgage for you!".

2019-06-01 23:29:01 +0000 UTCMy day was going well until I found out that there is going to be a Bob Honey sequel.

2019-06-01 23:22:09 +0000 UTCI hear ya! However, I gotta admit, because of the genre I was feeling kind of uneasy about reading this and then listening to 2 grown men go through it. This genre hasn't been in my wheelhouse since the early 80's when I dog-eared the pages of my Judy Blume's, 'Are you there God, It's Me Margaret.' I was pleasantly surprised in one aspect: NONE of the "boning" writings are remotely sensual. They're either comical, icky, or really icky, which makes them comical. I'm digging' this selection, but I also already have my copy of 'Truckers,' and am more excited about that one.

2019-06-01 21:17:21 +0000 UTCOh no! Do you think the jump in sales from us 372βers timed simultaneously with the paperback release is what encouraged Rare Bird Books to go forward with a Bob Honey sequel? Iβm so sorry, planet Earth, if I contributed even a skosh to this! So sorry.

2019-06-01 20:57:32 +0000 UTCI just dragged myself over chapter fifteen like so many shards of broken glass. How are people reading this??

2019-06-01 05:42:55 +0000 UTCNice to see Mike (or *kaff* whoever the Audible actor was) do a callback to Terry-Thomas as the British chap who just wants to nibble on your earlobe.

2019-06-01 01:05:04 +0000 UTCThe βI like musicβ line reminded me of Attack of the Clones: βI like the water.β Cue the riff: βThat was my entry in the Think of the Most Vapid Thing You Could Say contest!β

2019-05-31 23:19:39 +0000 UTCConor's low hum of appreciation sounds like the ghost from "The Grudge." It puts a weird spin on that movie.

2019-05-31 22:40:33 +0000 UTCMaybe that's what his "thickening" refers to. Just as a human being he's continually getting even thicker.

2019-05-31 19:59:35 +0000 UTCI haven't had a chance to listen yet, but my favorite line from this section is from Alessia. "He doesn't seem complicated" No. No he does not.

2019-05-31 19:26:52 +0000 UTCOk I just hit *ahem* THAT REVEAL a couple minutes into the episode, and my mom and dad both came running upstairs to see what was wrong when I reflexively screamed βNOOOO!!β I donβt want to live in a world where that book is a part of it. ππππππππ ESPECIALLY with that description; holy lord. And yeah September 10th??? Settle the heck down, Sean.
