The Wretched Beast, Stephen and our most excellent friends (of the show) Will M, JJ Hawkins (of Mars Needs Podcasts) and Aaron Fever (AaronFever.com's own) bring their talents up against the forces at work in Steeplin County.

Sorry if you haven't played these games, I guess? They're kind of weirdly interesting, which I guess is sort of the premise of doing this episode, but I'm not sure how interesting they'll be to most people.

With town being, in this case, an empty and desolate place filled with the echoes of lost souls (and subsequently some echo on the recording, sorry). Will the strange new recording locale effect our dynamic duo's ability to record some of the best discussion on why an author's podcast is bad? Probably! In fact, a lot of the book club is dedicated to this, and very little to Will's actual thoughts on the book discussed, which he enjoyed a lot. In fact, this isn't really much of a representation of anything other than two people coming together to celebrate their relatively similar birth dates. On a podcast! So, enjoy that. Stephen put in some audio from a different podcast, and, I mean, I don't know if it's cool to use or not so, keep it under your hat!

Stephen couldn't make it, so I took it upon myself to get into some listener request, and do some more exciting things I assume I can't normally do. This is a part of my therapy for Check, Please!ia, which is a thing I have, so I don't really know if any of this stuff I'm saying is what normally goes here. But, if it is, then that's cool!
