episode 4 notes–> return of the monomyth

in episode 4 our protagonists talk smack on a rather obscure text called The Return of the King, and also The Hobbit. and except for josh struggling to form cohesive sentences, you’ll also hear about:

episode 3 notes–>a lifetime of conversation, or: the listening hole

topics this week included:
