00:01:08   player one by Ernest Cline this is I i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/68">TS</a>]

00:01:12   think this may be his first book but he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/72">TS</a>]

00:01:15   is a screenwriter I believe he wrote a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/75">TS</a>]

00:01:17   movie fan boys as i recall which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/77">TS</a>]

00:01:21   surprisingly enough is about science [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/81">TS</a>]

00:01:24   fiction and geeks who would have seen it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/84">TS</a>]

00:01:26   coming but ready player one is a scifi [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/86">TS</a>]

00:01:30   books said in the i guess you could say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/90">TS</a>]

00:01:32   the near future [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/92">TS</a>]

00:01:33   it seems to borrow from pretty much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/93">TS</a>]

00:01:36   every property if you're within the age [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/96">TS</a>]

00:01:38   of what say 2240 maybe like every single [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/98">TS</a>]

00:01:42   thing that you grew up with seems to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/102">TS</a>]

00:01:44   have found its way into this book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/104">TS</a>]

00:01:46   somehow does that make it a good book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/106">TS</a>]

00:01:48   doesn't make it a band does it just make [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/108">TS</a>]

00:01:50   it a book i guess we'll see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/110">TS</a>]

00:01:52   so to start off I thought we talked a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/112">TS</a>]

00:01:54   little bit about the story of the book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/114">TS</a>]

00:01:56   itself and then we can we can delve a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/116">TS</a>]

00:01:58   little more into the the numerous [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/118">TS</a>]

00:02:01   limoges but the story sort of follows [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/121">TS</a>]

00:02:05   this this young guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/125">TS</a>]

00:02:07   Wade we learn about him through this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/127">TS</a>]

00:02:10   massively multiplayer online game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/130">TS</a>]

00:02:13   that he plays which may sound like other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/133">TS</a>]

00:02:16   massively multiplayer online games but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/136">TS</a>]

00:02:18   there seemed to be a it seems to be one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/138">TS</a>]

00:02:22   big metaverse style world in the in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/142">TS</a>]

00:02:24   in the ways of william gibson and neal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/144">TS</a>]

00:02:27   stephenson and I i will start off by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/147">TS</a>]

00:02:29   saying that I thought the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/149">TS</a>]

00:02:31   introduction part of this book where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/151">TS</a>]

00:02:32   that story is laid out for us was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/152">TS</a>]

00:02:35   somewhat horrific and almost made me put [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/155">TS</a>]

00:02:37   the book down horrific and waterway dan [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/157">TS</a>]

00:02:41   I think it was I think they'd be the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/161">TS</a>]

00:02:43   information dump aspect of it not the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/163">TS</a>]

00:02:45   ideas the ideas were fine i mean the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/165">TS</a>]

00:02:46   ideas we seem like science fiction the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/166">TS</a>]

00:02:48   kind of stuff that were used to but it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/168">TS</a>]

00:02:49   was all shoveled at you so quickly that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/169">TS</a>]

00:02:53   I got bored because i felt like i was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/173">TS</a>]

00:02:55   reading you know like a history book for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/175">TS</a>]

00:02:57   something that never happened [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/177">TS</a>]

00:02:58   well you know he just wanted to get all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/178">TS</a>]

00:03:00   that information out of the way so we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/180">TS</a>]

00:03:01   could delve really into his characters [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/181">TS</a>]

00:03:03   and tell us about their backstories and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/183">TS</a>]

00:03:06   yeah I asking inside their head exactly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/186">TS</a>]

00:03:09   richly paint them or just reference [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/189">TS</a>]

00:03:11   eighties movies a lot you so I'm I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/191">TS</a>]

00:03:14   getting the feeling that you guys feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/194">TS</a>]

00:03:15   similarly about so at you know as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/195">TS</a>]

00:03:18   someone who has never written any real [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/198">TS</a>]

00:03:20   fiction and doesn't write anything I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/200">TS</a>]

00:03:21   think there's something that everybody [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/201">TS</a>]

00:03:23   knows about the craft of writing fiction [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/203">TS</a>]

00:03:25   even if you've never written any fiction [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/205">TS</a>]

00:03:27   i never tried to write infections like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/207">TS</a>]

00:03:29   one rule that people know and this book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/209">TS</a>]

00:03:31   dances on its little gray from what is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/211">TS</a>]

00:03:33   that rule show don't tell [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/213">TS</a>]

00:03:36   for the love of God people this book is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/216">TS</a>]

00:03:39   like a giant exercise and what not to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/219">TS</a>]

00:03:42   and did the first little part the damage [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/222">TS</a>]

00:03:44   talking about what did you do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/224">TS</a>]

00:03:45   he tells you a bunch of stuff it's like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/225">TS</a>]

00:03:47   I don't I don't want you to tell me show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/227">TS</a>]

00:03:50   me show me this cool world that you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/230">TS</a>]

00:03:51   don't tell me everything about it and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/231">TS</a>]

00:03:53   just never stops [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/233">TS</a>]

00:03:54   I would have really loved if there had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/234">TS</a>]

00:03:56   been a way to just frame it so that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/236">TS</a>]

00:03:58   entire story is just holidays video the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/238">TS</a>]

00:04:01   prelude and then we have to get the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/241">TS</a>]

00:04:03   information from there instead it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/243">TS</a>]

00:04:04   holidays video along with oh let me tell [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/244">TS</a>]

00:04:07   you all the backstory about holidays [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/247">TS</a>]

00:04:09   video let me tell you about holiday [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/249">TS</a>]

00:04:11   oh let me also tell you about the world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/251">TS</a>]

00:04:13   it just doesn't quite work the way you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/253">TS</a>]

00:04:15   wanted to a lot of telling it reads [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/255">TS</a>]

00:04:18   original I mean of course client like I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/258">TS</a>]

00:04:20   said you know he was a screenwriter and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/260">TS</a>]

00:04:21   i think it is summer reads not so much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/261">TS</a>]

00:04:23   like a screen look like a synopsis right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/263">TS</a>]

00:04:25   like the premise like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/265">TS</a>]

00:04:26   right so here's my concept it's a world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/266">TS</a>]

00:04:28   where there's a big video game and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/268">TS</a>]

00:04:30   everybody's looking for this one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/270">TS</a>]

00:04:31   easter egg that's inside the video game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/271">TS</a>]

00:04:33   how and then it's like it's got like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/273">TS</a>]

00:04:35   end is like he wrote the entire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/275">TS</a>]

00:04:36   wikipedia like or it's a bad voiceover [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/276">TS</a>]

00:04:39   in a world where voiceover the trailer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/279">TS</a>]

00:04:43   voiceover for the first scene of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/283">TS</a>]

00:04:45   movie before you get to the actual movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/285">TS</a>]

00:04:46   but nothing that is really the point of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/286">TS</a>]

00:04:48   the book the idea is to get into a world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/288">TS</a>]

00:04:51   where you're obsessive memorization of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/291">TS</a>]

00:04:53   Monty Python actually matters all geeked [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/293">TS</a>]

00:04:57   streams yeah we basically all kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/297">TS</a>]

00:05:00   hope right that all this random data [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/300">TS</a>]

00:05:02   that we've acquired over the many many [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/302">TS</a>]

00:05:04   years that we've been alive will come in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/304">TS</a>]

00:05:06   handy someday somehow and in this world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/306">TS</a>]

00:05:09   in some ways the geeks you know are the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/309">TS</a>]

00:05:13   ultimate class because they are the ones [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/313">TS</a>]

00:05:15   who have all this esoteric knowledge [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/315">TS</a>]

00:05:18   yeah practicing joust for hours and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/318">TS</a>]

00:05:21   learning how to get through store in 15 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/321">TS</a>]

00:05:23   minutes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/323">TS</a>]

00:05:23   that was an important skill that's gonna [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/323">TS</a>]

00:05:25   pay off at some point it's it's this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/325">TS</a>]

00:05:28   book reads a little bit like like like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/328">TS</a>]

00:05:30   cognitive dissonance reduction or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/330">TS</a>]

00:05:32   something like this like I didn't waste [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/332">TS</a>]

00:05:34   my childhood these skills have used see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/334">TS</a>]

00:05:39   mom I could be a I could be a superhero [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/339">TS</a>]

00:05:42   it would be getting out the geek mine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/342">TS</a>]

00:05:44   repels repels of the idea that they need [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/344">TS</a>]

00:05:47   this such a vast world of things that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/347">TS</a>]

00:05:49   geeks do that this book in this contest [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/349">TS</a>]

00:05:52   can necessarily only include tiny subset [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/352">TS</a>]

00:05:54   of them and the odds of that subset [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/354">TS</a>]

00:05:55   exactly overlapping with your particular [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/355">TS</a>]

00:05:57   subset of basically zero so the only [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/357">TS</a>]

00:06:00   thing that's believe bonus is that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/360">TS</a>]

00:06:01   Sixers could have a vast network of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/361">TS</a>]

00:06:04   highly paid people who cumulatively [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/364">TS</a>]

00:06:06   could have these skills and they didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/366">TS</a>]

00:06:08   waste their sales but individually the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/368">TS</a>]

00:06:10   odds of any individual one person having [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/370">TS</a>]

00:06:12   the scales let alone like the three or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/372">TS</a>]

00:06:14   four good guys all knowing exactly these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/374">TS</a>]

00:06:15   specific things that human brain can't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/375">TS</a>]

00:06:17   hold that much information you know well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/377">TS</a>]

00:06:19   the the point of the whole beginning [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/379">TS</a>]

00:06:21   prologue right is that they they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/381">TS</a>]

00:06:23   obsessively study what holiday they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/383">TS</a>]

00:06:26   study but you can't you just can't this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/386">TS</a>]

00:06:27   too much you just can't study that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/387">TS</a>]

00:06:29   matter is it's it's the there there are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/389">TS</a>]

00:06:31   the script they are led by the script to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/391">TS</a>]

00:06:33   have memorize these particular movies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/393">TS</a>]

00:06:35   news but not actually they've memorized [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/395">TS</a>]

00:06:36   every moving it is also a photographic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/396">TS</a>]

00:06:39   so in the future yes I've nearly spent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/399">TS</a>]

00:06:42   my life learning exactly what these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/402">TS</a>]

00:06:44   characters have learned but I can't go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/404">TS</a>]

00:06:46   play pac-man and get a perfect score [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/406">TS</a>]

00:06:48   just because I on your first try [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/408">TS</a>]

00:06:51   yeah but well that's because you're not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/411">TS</a>]

00:06:52   trying hard enough ah well that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/412">TS</a>]

00:06:55   because that's because you're not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/415">TS</a>]

00:06:57   trapped in the story where every single [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/417">TS</a>]

00:06:58   thing that happens has happened for an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/418">TS</a>]

00:07:00   obvious reason its television stars like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/420">TS</a>]

00:07:02   I wonder why this packing able that be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/422">TS</a>]

00:07:04   important now certainly not rule I i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/424">TS</a>]

00:07:08   have to say remind me a little bit i was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/428">TS</a>]

00:07:10   watching at a friend's house a kung fu [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/430">TS</a>]

00:07:13   come from movie from the seventies it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/433">TS</a>]

00:07:15   was awesome and by awesome i mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/435">TS</a>]

00:07:17   terrible but the end up the the moral of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/437">TS</a>]

00:07:20   the story ended up being that this this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/440">TS</a>]

00:07:22   random sort of chinese kung foo kid this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/442">TS</a>]

00:07:25   cube and studying it like under his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/445">TS</a>]

00:07:26   father accidentally challenges like all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/446">TS</a>]

00:07:29   the greatest masters of Japanese kungfu [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/449">TS</a>]

00:07:31   and like all the great masters of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/451">TS</a>]

00:07:33   Japanese kungfu show up and somehow this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/453">TS</a>]

00:07:35   random kid beats all of them with in all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/455">TS</a>]

00:07:38   their various disciplines it was the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/458">TS</a>]

00:07:40   main character you see that's how it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/460">TS</a>]

00:07:41   works the more the camera points that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/461">TS</a>]

00:07:43   you the more powerful you are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/463">TS</a>]

00:07:45   it should have been obvious to me so to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/465">TS</a>]

00:07:48   develop the plot a little bit so those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/468">TS</a>]

00:07:51   who are falling on haven't read the book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/471">TS</a>]

00:07:52   and who may now never read i liked it i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/472">TS</a>]

00:07:55   I you know that i enjoyed as well but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/475">TS</a>]

00:07:57   the to sort of spell of the world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/477">TS</a>]

00:07:59   basically there's this massively [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/479">TS</a>]

00:08:00   multiplayer online game in which the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/480">TS</a>]

00:08:03   Creator james halliday has hidden [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/483">TS</a>]

00:08:06   various easter eggs that will sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/486">TS</a>]

00:08:09   lead people on this treasure hunt at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/489">TS</a>]

00:08:12   end of which they'll come into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/492">TS</a>]

00:08:13   unimaginable power of course and of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/493">TS</a>]

00:08:14   course everything is locked into all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/494">TS</a>]

00:08:17   these geek culture references movies TV [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/497">TS</a>]

00:08:19   shows video games from the eighties [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/499">TS</a>]

00:08:21   because that's the time when the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/501">TS</a>]

00:08:22   inventor grew up so our main character [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/502">TS</a>]

00:08:25   is a huge geek who is really into all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/505">TS</a>]

00:08:28   these subject areas and is trained and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/508">TS</a>]

00:08:30   you'll memorize all this in the hopes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/510">TS</a>]

00:08:32   that he can find this easter egg which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/512">TS</a>]

00:08:34   of course he never does in the book is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/514">TS</a>]

00:08:36   really boring and ends [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/516">TS</a>]

00:08:37   wait no that's not this book okay that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/517">TS</a>]

00:08:41   would have been too sad i'm curious as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/521">TS</a>]

00:08:44   to what you guys thought about the sort [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/524">TS</a>]

00:08:45   of the moments that we spend outside of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/525">TS</a>]

00:08:48   the game in this future which looks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/528">TS</a>]

00:08:51   pretty grim [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/531">TS</a>]

00:08:52   talk of her moment about the stacks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/532">TS</a>]

00:08:54   because trying to imagine that visually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/534">TS</a>]

00:08:57   gives me a son can you can you explain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/537">TS</a>]

00:08:59   what that yeah so the stacks it there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/539">TS</a>]

00:09:02   are is where our main character grows up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/542">TS</a>]

00:09:04   and it's basically from what I can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/544">TS</a>]

00:09:06   gather it's that the the cities of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/546">TS</a>]

00:09:10   United States and of the world are still [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/550">TS</a>]

00:09:12   you know fairly five functioning things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/552">TS</a>]

00:09:15   however power and and various other you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/555">TS</a>]

00:09:19   know important livelihood type things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/559">TS</a>]

00:09:22   have basically died out everywhere [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/562">TS</a>]

00:09:23   that's not a major city so people drove [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/563">TS</a>]

00:09:26   their RVs and their mobile homes and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/566">TS</a>]

00:09:28   their trailers in an attempt to try and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/568">TS</a>]

00:09:30   get near the big cities and then failed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/570">TS</a>]

00:09:32   and so they decided to stack their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/572">TS</a>]

00:09:34   mobile homes on top of each other and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/574">TS</a>]

00:09:35   create virtual apartments and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/575">TS</a>]

00:09:40   it all sounds very dangerous and very I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/580">TS</a>]

00:09:43   every time there's a couple chapters [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/583">TS</a>]

00:09:45   where we're in the stacks and every time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/585">TS</a>]

00:09:47   i'm reading about the stacks I feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/587">TS</a>]

00:09:49   I'm about to step on something with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/589">TS</a>]

00:09:50   tetanus and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/590">TS</a>]

00:09:52   that's what I felt like in their heat [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/592">TS</a>]

00:09:54   our main character has a place to sort [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/594">TS</a>]

00:09:56   of hide away thats in this junkyard in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/596">TS</a>]

00:09:58   this old van that's like half crushed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/598">TS</a>]

00:10:00   and that's what I kept thinking was you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/600">TS</a>]

00:10:03   know the same the same idea of this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/603">TS</a>]

00:10:05   seems really really dangerous and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/605">TS</a>]

00:10:06   alternatively also reminded me of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/606">TS</a>]

00:10:08   anybody who ever read The Three [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/608">TS</a>]

00:10:09   Investigators they had a trailer that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/609">TS</a>]

00:10:11   was buried in a junkyard which was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/611">TS</a>]

00:10:13   awesome I totally won i remember that i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/613">TS</a>]

00:10:15   decide you just activated a memory [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/615">TS</a>]

00:10:17   achievement unlocked they had a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/617">TS</a>]

00:10:22   chauffeur that drove them everywhere all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/622">TS</a>]

00:10:24   the trailers are all stacked up there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/624">TS</a>]

00:10:25   the better to blow up my dear [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/625">TS</a>]

00:10:27   yes true because what wouldn't be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/627">TS</a>]

00:10:30   complete with a giant evil corporation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/630">TS</a>]

00:10:32   blowing stuff up by topic like dominoes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/632">TS</a>]

00:10:35   in the movie adaptation just wait [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/635">TS</a>]

00:10:37   they are so essentially yes oh so our [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/637">TS</a>]

00:10:40   hero does manage to sort of be the first [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/640">TS</a>]

00:10:43   one who unlocks it part of this this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/643">TS</a>]

00:10:45   mystery and he comes across up against [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/645">TS</a>]

00:10:47   this major corporation that is as John [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/647">TS</a>]

00:10:49   was talking about earlier that sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/649">TS</a>]

00:10:50   assembled all this raw talent to try and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/650">TS</a>]

00:10:54   you know cheat the system or less and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/654">TS</a>]

00:10:56   they essentially blow up his home with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/656">TS</a>]

00:10:58   his family for remote remains of his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/658">TS</a>]

00:11:01   family in it but that's okay because we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/661">TS</a>]

00:11:03   didn't really like them anyway we did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/663">TS</a>]

00:11:05   like the downstairs neighbor in that one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/665">TS</a>]

00:11:06   yeah we felt bad for her for about the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/666">TS</a>]

00:11:08   page and a half [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/668">TS</a>]

00:11:09   that was a weird I mean even even the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/669">TS</a>]

00:11:11   thing with like the well the answer is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/671">TS</a>]

00:11:13   really awful the Anthony lives with is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/673">TS</a>]

00:11:15   really awful that's still it was such a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/675">TS</a>]

00:11:19   bizarre choice to be like I'm just gonna [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/679">TS</a>]

00:11:21   kill these people often really no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/681">TS</a>]

00:11:23   conscious yet they went right from like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/683">TS</a>]

00:11:26   from future world video game into murder [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/686">TS</a>]

00:11:28   like that transition was not smooth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/688">TS</a>]

00:11:30   I think that's still just pure geek [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/690">TS</a>]

00:11:33   wish-fulfillment though because they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/693">TS</a>]

00:11:34   stole his computer wouldn't let him go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/694">TS</a>]

00:11:36   online so naturally they must die [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/696">TS</a>]

00:11:40   I wish our corporation would blow to my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/700">TS</a>]

00:11:41   mom up about my trouble since Cinderella [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/701">TS</a>]

00:11:46   would have done the same thing they took [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/706">TS</a>]

00:11:47   her laptop that's always been so then we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/707">TS</a>]

00:11:50   enter into this strange period where our [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/710">TS</a>]

00:11:52   character sort of goes on the run but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/712">TS</a>]

00:11:55   he's much more well outfitted now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/715">TS</a>]

00:11:58   because he's become this at least in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/718">TS</a>]

00:12:00   virtual world the celebrity so he sold [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/720">TS</a>]

00:12:03   himself out to sponsorships [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/723">TS</a>]

00:12:05   I mean that sounds like the future to me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/725">TS</a>]

00:12:07   that that whole thing especially right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/727">TS</a>]

00:12:09   after he finds the first key and then he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/729">TS</a>]

00:12:11   gets the opportunity from the big giant [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/731">TS</a>]

00:12:13   corporation to come join them and be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/733">TS</a>]

00:12:16   their head and he tells them to screw [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/736">TS</a>]

00:12:18   off and then they blow up his trailer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/738">TS</a>]

00:12:20   and then go to survive he sells himself [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/740">TS</a>]

00:12:23   to all kinds of companies and it just it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/743">TS</a>]

00:12:27   it felt a little i mean i understand why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/747">TS</a>]

00:12:30   it's necessary and context of the book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/750">TS</a>]

00:12:32   but it felt very much like yes I am I am [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/752">TS</a>]

00:12:36   totally badass i'm going to be on a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/756">TS</a>]

00:12:38   sneaker company and a milk carton now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/758">TS</a>]

00:12:41   and I'm totally above light [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/761">TS</a>]

00:12:44   I'm above retribution and I'm above you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/764">TS</a>]

00:12:47   know finger-pointing with it with a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/767">TS</a>]

00:12:50   sneaker company and the milk carton [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/770">TS</a>]

00:12:51   different things because like milk [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/771">TS</a>]

00:12:53   cartons because he's like missing and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/773">TS</a>]

00:12:58   copied because there's no way to copy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/778">TS</a>]

00:13:00   the amount of the American avatar know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/780">TS</a>]

00:13:02   whatever do that would've been more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/782">TS</a>]

00:13:03   realistic they all agreed to pay him but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/783">TS</a>]

00:13:06   fraud and he was never get there we'll [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/786">TS</a>]

00:13:08   get any money because he couldn't get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/788">TS</a>]

00:13:09   through human to do the resolution it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/789">TS</a>]

00:13:12   also extremely convenient that the first [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/792">TS</a>]

00:13:14   key that he goes looking for happens to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/794">TS</a>]

00:13:15   be on the only planet that he can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/795">TS</a>]

00:13:17   actually get to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/797">TS</a>]

00:13:18   justify that in my head I figured out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/798">TS</a>]

00:13:20   that naturally the keys would have to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/800">TS</a>]

00:13:23   on a planet that holiday had created so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/803">TS</a>]

00:13:27   naturally it's not going to be on one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/807">TS</a>]

00:13:28   these far-flung new plan well they did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/808">TS</a>]

00:13:30   they justified like crazy in the book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/810">TS</a>]

00:13:32   they were like kinda makes sense you see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/812">TS</a>]

00:13:33   because it's gonna be that's a near [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/813">TS</a>]

00:13:35   school and have to be someplace because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/815">TS</a>]

00:13:36   you wanted two kids find it was a kid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/816">TS</a>]

00:13:38   like it they went they bent over [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/818">TS</a>]

00:13:39   backwards to justify that was the least [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/819">TS</a>]

00:13:41   of his first key it doesn't bother me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/821">TS</a>]

00:13:43   because again we are reading a book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/823">TS</a>]

00:13:45   where presumably things happen and for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/825">TS</a>]

00:13:47   the main character you know presumably [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/827">TS</a>]

00:13:50   there's a reason why we're following [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/830">TS</a>]

00:13:51   this kid so I can it's like charlie and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/831">TS</a>]

00:13:54   the chocolate factory right once to get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/834">TS</a>]

00:13:56   into the world of crazy solving puzzles [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/836">TS</a>]

00:14:00   i have no problem with whatever deus ex [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/840">TS</a>]

00:14:03   machina you want to invent so all right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/843">TS</a>]

00:14:05   he finds the key because it's the only [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/845">TS</a>]

00:14:06   plan to visit great he lived he goes to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/846">TS</a>]

00:14:08   a perfect school because no one can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/848">TS</a>]

00:14:10   bully him because he's in virtual world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/850">TS</a>]

00:14:12   fine that that all works for me it's its [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/852">TS</a>]

00:14:15   subsequent layers that where things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/855">TS</a>]

00:14:17   begin a little interesting interesting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/857">TS</a>]

00:14:19   is one way of putting it i think so did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/859">TS</a>]

00:14:23   it did anyone else find it like speaking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/863">TS</a>]

00:14:24   of the other keys it's not the first the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/864">TS</a>]

00:14:26   second or third key they made a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/866">TS</a>]

00:14:28   especially the first key but even the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/868">TS</a>]

00:14:29   second one a lot of like all these these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/869">TS</a>]

00:14:31   experts especially the Sixers and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/871">TS</a>]

00:14:33   everything racking their brains trying [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/873">TS</a>]

00:14:35   to figure out like they just can't get a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/875">TS</a>]

00:14:36   foothold they don't even know where to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/876">TS</a>]

00:14:37   begin they're just making not making any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/877">TS</a>]

00:14:38   progress every one of them if you knew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/878">TS</a>]

00:14:40   any part of the reference you're like oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/880">TS</a>]

00:14:43   yeah I think that's probably the you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/883">TS</a>]

00:14:44   know something to do with the name of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/884">TS</a>]

00:14:46   the DNG module and you know i got the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/886">TS</a>]

00:14:48   first one the two before yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/888">TS</a>]

00:14:49   and-and-and suppose the second one again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/889">TS</a>]

00:14:51   I forgotten already [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/891">TS</a>]

00:14:52   I think the second one was or yes the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/892">TS</a>]

00:14:55   second one also was like you know I'd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/895">TS</a>]

00:14:57   not that I'm saying I solved me that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/897">TS</a>]

00:14:59   knew exactly what it was because he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/899">TS</a>]

00:15:00   couldn't there was enough information [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/900">TS</a>]

00:15:01   that really but I I had an inkling I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/901">TS</a>]

00:15:03   knew what I know what references they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/903">TS</a>]

00:15:04   were making and how it manifests right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/904">TS</a>]

00:15:06   and it's hard to believe how hard to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/906">TS</a>]

00:15:08   believe that these super experts would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/908">TS</a>]

00:15:09   just be totally stumped and not know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/909">TS</a>]

00:15:11   where to go and be missing the obvious [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/911">TS</a>]

00:15:12   well not just that but I mean you see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/912">TS</a>]

00:15:14   how many people you know today come up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/914">TS</a>]

00:15:16   with the you know tell in document every [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/916">TS</a>]

00:15:19   possible little obscure thing in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/919">TS</a>]

00:15:21   world right just type the closing to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/921">TS</a>]

00:15:23   google and he'll get how there's no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/923">TS</a>]

00:15:26   google in the future John yeah right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/926">TS</a>]

00:15:28   google [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/928">TS</a>]

00:15:29   Scott there's only oasis I mean I work [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/929">TS</a>]

00:15:32   at the company that makes dnd and i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/932">TS</a>]

00:15:33   still play text adventures so those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/933">TS</a>]

00:15:35   Clues didn't even read as close to me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/935">TS</a>]

00:15:38   was oh tomb of horrors [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/938">TS</a>]

00:15:39   oh dork i know that's that's something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/939">TS</a>]

00:15:41   like that they're trying to balance it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/941">TS</a>]

00:15:43   when you're writing the book you don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/943">TS</a>]

00:15:44   want it to be so obscure that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/944">TS</a>]

00:15:45   average reader is gonna be like no human [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/945">TS</a>]

00:15:46   could have gotten that but on the other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/946">TS</a>]

00:15:48   hand you don't have to be super easy and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/948">TS</a>]

00:15:49   I felt like if this book is aimed the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/949">TS</a>]

00:15:50   geeks every gig had some piece of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/950">TS</a>]

00:15:53   knowledge they're like well that seems [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/953">TS</a>]

00:15:55   like it's going to be this thing it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/955">TS</a>]

00:15:57   the thing that makes it hard to set up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/957">TS</a>]

00:15:59   right because the idea is supposed to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/959">TS</a>]

00:16:00   bye-bye premise alone right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/960">TS</a>]

00:16:02   he's were locked into a world where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/962">TS</a>]

00:16:04   nobody has found this thing yet right so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/964">TS</a>]

00:16:07   I I think we're kind of stuck in that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/967">TS</a>]

00:16:09   regard so it's really hard to pass that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/969">TS</a>]

00:16:12   bar as the author and be like here's why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/972">TS</a>]

00:16:14   it's so hard you know in a brainteaser [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/974">TS</a>]

00:16:17   fashion for everybody to have figured it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/977">TS</a>]

00:16:19   out maybe they should just put a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/979">TS</a>]

00:16:21   guns around it or something it's kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/981">TS</a>]

00:16:23   like scripting comedy show right where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/983">TS</a>]

00:16:25   your show it like twice the joke why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/985">TS</a>]

00:16:27   studio 60 failed is that the comedy on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/987">TS</a>]

00:16:30   the behind-the-scenes comedy show wasn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/990">TS</a>]

00:16:32   actually funny it's the same basic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/992">TS</a>]

00:16:34   principle we're all right i need these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/994">TS</a>]

00:16:36   clues to be hard but at the same time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/996">TS</a>]

00:16:38   they need to be brilliant and there's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/998">TS</a>]

00:16:41   certain level where the clues are fun [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1001">TS</a>]

00:16:43   but they're not they're not you know the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1003">TS</a>]

00:16:45   hardest cryptography or puzzle that I've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1005">TS</a>]

00:16:48   ever come across and that's maybe where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1008">TS</a>]

00:16:51   we run into trouble that's the danger [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1011">TS</a>]

00:16:52   with using real information because had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1012">TS</a>]

00:16:54   had this all been synthetic you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1014">TS</a>]

00:16:56   total fantasy world no relation to our [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1016">TS</a>]

00:16:58   own then you can make very clever [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1018">TS</a>]

00:17:00   puzzles you don't have to account for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1020">TS</a>]

00:17:02   you don't you don't have to account for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1022">TS</a>]

00:17:04   the varying levels of knowledge in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1024">TS</a>]

00:17:05   reader because all your readers have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1025">TS</a>]

00:17:06   zero knowledge about your new world but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1026">TS</a>]

00:17:08   if it's like yeah that's what's our [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1028">TS</a>]

00:17:09   world but I really now you're kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1029">TS</a>]

00:17:11   screwed but as it is I jump right past [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1031">TS</a>]

00:17:14   our brilliant protagonist say Oh tomb of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1034">TS</a>]

00:17:15   horrors and then I get mad because to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1035">TS</a>]

00:17:17   move forward was actually reprinted in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1037">TS</a>]

00:17:19   different editions for 2nd edition D&D [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1039">TS</a>]

00:17:21   and 3.5 with which version is it so what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1041">TS</a>]

00:17:26   you're saying is the books not geeky and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1046">TS</a>]

00:17:28   now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1048">TS</a>]

00:17:28   not to mention that likes of the rules [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1048">TS</a>]

00:17:30   of Oasis are probably not you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1050">TS</a>]

00:17:31   standard D&D rules if you're going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1051">TS</a>]

00:17:33   open the door to super geeky stuff you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1053">TS</a>]

00:17:37   absolutely have to get it right you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1057">TS</a>]

00:17:39   better know it's going to come in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1059">TS</a>]

00:17:40   otherwise you're asking for this kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1060">TS</a>]

00:17:42   complaint it is true now I knew I was in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1062">TS</a>]

00:17:45   trouble with the first clue when I knew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1065">TS</a>]

00:17:47   the answer and I thought okay so he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1067">TS</a>]

00:17:49   written this book about really geeky [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1069">TS</a>]

00:17:51   things so that geeks like me will buy it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1071">TS</a>]

00:17:53   and then he wrote this clue so that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1073">TS</a>]

00:17:55   geeks like me could solve it easily so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1075">TS</a>]

00:17:57   we would feel special and he's pandering [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1077">TS</a>]

00:17:59   to me and now I hate him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1079">TS</a>]

00:18:02   it's just a it's just a set of dominoes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1082">TS</a>]

00:18:06   not going over right there it's true and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1086">TS</a>]

00:18:08   then I I didn't like the book from them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1088">TS</a>]

00:18:09   because every reference I thought more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1089">TS</a>]

00:18:14   pandering I hate this guy but I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1094">TS</a>]

00:18:17   Jason made this a comment and I'll often [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1097">TS</a>]

00:18:19   for him he was like the pandering it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1099">TS</a>]

00:18:21   it annoyed me to the same reasons and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1101">TS</a>]

00:18:24   Scott but the thing about it is and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1104">TS</a>]

00:18:26   didn't think this would happen to me but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1106">TS</a>]

00:18:27   it did like three quarters with a bucket [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1107">TS</a>]

00:18:29   like an hour and reference reference [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1109">TS</a>]

00:18:30   reference reference reference what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1110">TS</a>]

00:18:33   they're trying to do is like the night [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1113">TS</a>]

00:18:35   and when you see an interesting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1115">TS</a>]

00:18:36   references like oh wow you know I didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1116">TS</a>]

00:18:38   think anyone knew their reverence with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1118">TS</a>]

00:18:39   me but these were so common like who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1119">TS</a>]

00:20:13   level i could not stop grinning because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1213">TS</a>]

00:20:16   as absurd as it was and all of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1216">TS</a>]

00:20:26   in and final time into it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1226">TS</a>]

00:20:28   all that aside it's really fun [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1228">TS</a>]

00:20:32   it's it's the kind of book where you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1232">TS</a>]

00:20:34   don't have to concentrate a whole lot to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1234">TS</a>]

00:20:36   figure out what's going on so you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1236">TS</a>]

00:20:43   12 again and that kind of highest kinda [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1243">TS</a>]

00:20:46   is fun it's not necessarily world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1246">TS</a>]

00:20:49   literature but it was still a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1249">TS</a>]

00:20:51   know or you could just play a video game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1251">TS</a>]

00:20:54   I wanted to say something about one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1254">TS</a>]

00:20:56   the parts of the book that I actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1256">TS</a>]

00:20:57   kind of liked which is so about midway [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1257">TS</a>]

00:21:00   through are our hero has removed himself [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1260">TS</a>]

00:21:02   to its cleveland right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1262">TS</a>]

00:21:05   yes yeah mm-hmm this is how you can tell [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1265">TS</a>]

00:21:08   this book is fiction because cleveland [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1268">TS</a>]

00:21:10   is important well it was known as a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1270">TS</a>]

00:21:12   holidays hometown that's why it wasn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1272">TS</a>]

00:21:19   goes so we can power and is good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1279">TS</a>]

00:21:21   internet good internet yeah that's how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1281">TS</a>]

00:21:23   you know he's not just Lord British and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1283">TS</a>]

00:21:27   so he realizes at a certain point that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1287">TS</a>]

00:21:30   he's going to be sort of stymied unless [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1290">TS</a>]

00:21:31   he can get in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1291">TS</a>]

00:21:34   inside this corporation that is that is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1294">TS</a>]

00:21:37   his main antagonist and so he sets up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1297">TS</a>]

00:21:40   kind of up you know a scenario in which [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1300">TS</a>]

00:21:42   he ends up having to infiltrate them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1302">TS</a>]

00:21:45   from the inside and get some information [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1305">TS</a>]

00:21:48   and get out and I kind of found that to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1308">TS</a>]

00:21:51   be that might have been my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1311">TS</a>]

00:21:52   my top five favorite part of the book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1312">TS</a>]

00:21:54   with that I i really enjoyed those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1314">TS</a>]

00:21:56   scenes that were you know because i felt [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1316">TS</a>]

00:21:59   like it took a little bit of a leap from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1319">TS</a>]

00:22:01   the you know we were outside of the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1321">TS</a>]

00:22:04   game and we get a little more picture of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1324">TS</a>]

00:22:06   this world that he lives in and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1326">TS</a>]

00:22:08   particularly this this company and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1328">TS</a>]

00:22:10   thought that was really interesting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1330">TS</a>]

00:22:12   I was just gonna say it reminds me of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1332">TS</a>]

00:22:13   terry gilliam's Brazil yes where you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1333">TS</a>]

00:22:17   know they knocked on the door and take [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1337">TS</a>]

00:22:18   away because he is out of he's bankrupt [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1338">TS</a>]

00:22:22   or something and that he needs to enter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1342">TS</a>]

00:22:24   into indentured servitude so he can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1344">TS</a>]

00:22:25   repay his debt to his corporation and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1345">TS</a>]

00:22:29   then he uses his mad hacker skills to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1349">TS</a>]

00:22:32   figure out what's going on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1352">TS</a>]

00:22:34   I love the idea by the way of indentured [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1354">TS</a>]

00:22:37   servitude due to credit card debt and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1357">TS</a>]

00:22:39   I'm surprised that no major credit card [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1359">TS</a>]

00:22:41   corporation has figured out a way to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1361">TS</a>]

00:22:43   it yes this is not a political podcast [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1363">TS</a>]

00:22:46   no politics now I'm just amused by the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1366">TS</a>]

00:22:50   idea as in science fiction book know as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1370">TS</a>]

00:22:52   a science which ensure i mean you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1372">TS</a>]

00:22:54   it's not necessarily particularly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1374">TS</a>]

00:22:56   original and so on right either but a it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1376">TS</a>]

00:22:58   at least that was the part of which I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1378">TS</a>]

00:23:00   felt from a plot perspective I actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1380">TS</a>]

00:23:02   felt there was some tension in this book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1382">TS</a>]

00:23:04   well yeah because I mean you have him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1384">TS</a>]

00:23:06   throwing basically throwing himself into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1386">TS</a>]

00:23:08   a really sketchy situation whereas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1388">TS</a>]

00:23:10   before it's like oh my virtual [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1390">TS</a>]

00:23:12   characters at stake but that's okay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1392">TS</a>]

00:23:14   because I'm locked in this high tech [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1394">TS</a>]

00:23:16   room where everybody brings me my food [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1396">TS</a>]

00:23:18   and I have a virtual butler to make sure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1398">TS</a>]

00:23:19   that i'm running and fit never used it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1399">TS</a>]

00:23:21   really buff now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1401">TS</a>]

00:23:23   yeah they're nerd fantasy right finally [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1403">TS</a>]

00:23:26   they'll find a fun way to get fit in in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1406">TS</a>]

00:23:28   that world it's really it's very sterile [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1408">TS</a>]

00:23:31   and you and you do you step away from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1411">TS</a>]

00:23:33   the game world so you're not being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1413">TS</a>]

00:23:35   bashed with references every 10 minutes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1415">TS</a>]

00:23:37   and I feel like it actually gives [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1417">TS</a>]

00:23:38   earnest clients writing a bit of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1418">TS</a>]

00:23:40   chance to breathe it's you know you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1420">TS</a>]

00:23:43   you're playing with actual plot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1423">TS</a>]

00:23:45   developments here not just I missed a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1425">TS</a>]

00:23:48   couple of references on top of each [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1428">TS</a>]

00:23:49   other and try and morph it into oh we're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1429">TS</a>]

00:23:52   going forward he didn't necessarily have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1432">TS</a>]

00:23:54   the crutch to lean on of the game and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1434">TS</a>]

00:23:56   all the the 0 Maj but and like I said I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1436">TS</a>]

00:24:01   felt like there was actually some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1441">TS</a>]

00:24:02   tension here as opposed to like run was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1442">TS</a>]

00:24:03   saying in in the game world where it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1443">TS</a>]

00:24:05   seems like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1445">TS</a>]

00:24:06   is the the what's at stake feels very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1446">TS</a>]

00:24:10   vague in some way so if the bad guys get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1450">TS</a>]

00:24:13   this will suck because they'll take over [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1453">TS</a>]

00:24:15   the game and I make everybody pay for it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1455">TS</a>]

00:24:17   and capitalism is bad it's very very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1457">TS</a>]

00:24:20   confusing what's at stake for about a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1460">TS</a>]

00:24:22   hundred pages his life's in danger until [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1462">TS</a>]

00:25:19   basically our love interest they don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1519">TS</a>]

00:25:22   get much more three dimensional that and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1522">TS</a>]

00:25:26   that is about all those two japanese [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1526">TS</a>]

00:25:30   kind of like those guys even if they are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1530">TS</a>]

00:25:32   kind of ridiculous and stereotypical I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1532">TS</a>]

00:25:35   thought the interesting part of these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1535">TS</a>]

00:25:37   other two hunters Amy to he assumes are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1537">TS</a>]

00:25:39   brothers for the longest time of these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1539">TS</a>]

00:25:41   two japanese hunters and I think you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1541">TS</a>]

00:25:45   know I guess I was more interested when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1545">TS</a>]

00:25:47   I found out like more about them you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1547">TS</a>]

00:25:52   characters when that twister comes up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1552">TS</a>]

00:25:54   later in the book that these two people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1554">TS</a>]

00:25:56   had like never met in real life despite [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1556">TS</a>]

00:25:58   going around basically pretending to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1558">TS</a>]

00:26:00   brothers and this online world it that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1560">TS</a>]

00:26:03   was more of an interesting dynamic to me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1563">TS</a>]

00:26:05   but you know we don't spend a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1565">TS</a>]

00:26:08   time with them because they're kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1568">TS</a>]

00:26:09   secondary did you guys have like it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1569">TS</a>]

00:26:15   well thought-out and well-drawn I like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1575">TS</a>]

00:26:19   startimus before she got introduced as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1579">TS</a>]

00:26:21   the love interest when she's talked [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1581">TS</a>]

00:26:25   badass girl who is right you know who is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1585">TS</a>]

00:26:29   writing all about this in her in her web [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1589">TS</a>]

00:26:31   blog and keeping updates and and so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1591">TS</a>]

00:26:36   until when she comes on screen then it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1596">TS</a>]

00:26:38   becomes I mean I don't get me wrong I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1598">TS</a>]

00:26:40   enjoy coming some of the banter between [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1600">TS</a>]

00:26:42   her and the lead character and and she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1602">TS</a>]

00:26:44   has a couple of nice moments but once it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1604">TS</a>]

00:26:46   gets into the no we can't be together [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1606">TS</a>]

00:26:48   because what if we what if we don't find [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1608">TS</a>]

00:26:51   it before the Sixers do it's our oh I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1611">TS</a>]

00:26:56   not as pretty and realize you don't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1616">TS</a>]

00:26:58   what i look like and what what's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1618">TS</a>]

00:27:00   reality she's exactly is pretty issues [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1620">TS</a>]

00:27:02   in real life she just has a scar or some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1622">TS</a>]

00:27:04   kind of like birthday yeah birthmark but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1624">TS</a>]

00:27:18   too just like it it's just I where I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1638">TS</a>]

00:27:22   thought it was going to go on it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1642">TS</a>]

00:27:23   gonna be like well that she's real is as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1643">TS</a>]

00:27:25   a girl obviously and it seems logically [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1645">TS</a>]

00:27:28   logical that should be in love with the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1648">TS</a>]

00:27:29   main character but I don't know we don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1649">TS</a>]

00:27:45   triangle with her an artifact bigger the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1665">TS</a>]

00:27:47   inmate would make perfect sense that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1667">TS</a>]

00:28:14   dimension than most of the female [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1694">TS</a>]

00:28:16   characters in The Wise Man's Fear [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1696">TS</a>]

00:29:01   we they're all they're all very tertiary [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1741">TS</a>]

00:29:04   if the problem is is you you get these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1744">TS</a>]

00:29:06   hints that these characters could [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1746">TS</a>]

00:29:07   actually be really really interesting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1747">TS</a>]

00:29:09   but because the book is so very Wade [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1749">TS</a>]

00:29:42   dress alike they have caring avatars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1782">TS</a>]

00:29:59   been anything that's unsanitary true [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1799">TS</a>]

00:30:02   they have a starship so don't think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1802">TS</a>]

00:30:03   writing so that's kind of cool end up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1803">TS</a>]

00:30:05   planning they like a rude everybody gets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1805">TS</a>]

00:30:07   a robot later on which is pretty awesome [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1807">TS</a>]

00:30:09   and so there are benefits to be evil but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1809">TS</a>]

00:30:12   I wondered about the today or else what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1812">TS</a>]

00:30:14   about the intellectual property is yes I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1814">TS</a>]

00:30:16   was just going to say well that was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1816">TS</a>]

00:30:19   exciting but there's obviously a movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1819">TS</a>]

00:30:21   adaptation of this coming and this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1821">TS</a>]

00:30:23   gonna be a nightmare from licensing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1823">TS</a>]

00:30:24   perspective I think they'll just have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1824">TS</a>]

00:30:26   everything from one property rights to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1826">TS</a>]

00:30:29   do and I love you can keep making a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1829">TS</a>]

00:30:31   movie yeah i don't know like GE and NBC [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1831">TS</a>]

00:30:35   owned enough things that surely you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1835">TS</a>]

00:30:37   just that's not our wizards of the coast [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1837">TS</a>]

00:30:41   not yet i mean you can write you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1841">TS</a>]

00:30:45   write a decent amount off on parody but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1845">TS</a>]

00:30:49   that being said it's something its [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1849">TS</a>]

00:30:51   entirety when you're mouthing the words [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1851">TS</a>]

00:30:52   to Ferris Bueller it's not happening [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1852">TS</a>]

00:30:54   yeah that's seen it's gonna be hard to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1854">TS</a>]

00:30:56   do but because we're gonna have to watch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1856">TS</a>]

00:30:59   the entirety of Ferris Bueller inside [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1859">TS</a>]

00:31:01   its entirety of ready player one this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1861">TS</a>]

00:31:03   movie's gonna be like eight hours long [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1863">TS</a>]

00:31:05   they do have that as a game now on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1865">TS</a>]

00:31:06   connect it's just I just a scene and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1866">TS</a>]

00:31:10   apparently it's really annoying to play [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1870">TS</a>]

00:31:11   more than once but I wondered how this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1871">TS</a>]

00:31:13   actually worked in the world of the game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1873">TS</a>]

00:31:15   because they have all these like they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1875">TS</a>]

00:31:17   have the spaceships from like Firefly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1877">TS</a>]

00:31:19   and Star Wars and Star Trek and it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1879">TS</a>]

00:31:21   like oh yeah intellectual property [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1881">TS</a>]

00:31:23   seized to exist for the same [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1883">TS</a>]

00:32:20   enterprise for you know whatever a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1940">TS</a>]

00:32:21   hundred bucks and then paramount get a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1941">TS</a>]

00:32:23   hundred dollars or you know probably [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1943">TS</a>]

00:32:25   thirty percent or whatever would be so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1945">TS</a>]

00:32:29   kind of I mean I don't know if he went [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1949">TS</a>]

00:32:31   into that detail in his head but i will [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1951">TS</a>]

00:32:33   assume he did and that is how it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1953">TS</a>]

00:32:35   explains all of those things in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1955">TS</a>]

00:32:36   oasis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1956">TS</a>]

00:32:37   I guess it's just a good thing that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1957">TS</a>]

00:32:39   everyone of holidays childhood [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1959">TS</a>]

00:32:40   obsessions was owned by somebody who is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1960">TS</a>]

00:32:43   willing to sign a license fee to this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1963">TS</a>]

00:32:45   exactly i also thought it was strange [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1965">TS</a>]

00:32:47   that the most powerful person you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1967">TS</a>]

00:32:50   that we have this character holiday and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1970">TS</a>]

00:32:52   I also thought it was weird that his his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1972">TS</a>]

00:32:55   character in the game is named after [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1975">TS</a>]

00:32:57   like a jacket yeah and in some ways this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1977">TS</a>]

00:33:02   whole week when I mean everything about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1982">TS</a>]

00:33:04   this book is is basically a trope right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1984">TS</a>]

00:33:06   like the plot the characters and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1986">TS</a>]

00:33:10   amaj and I guess you know it seems like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1990">TS</a>]

00:33:13   it's one of those situations that should [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1993">TS</a>]

00:33:15   be a perfect storm of things that people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/1995">TS</a>]

00:33:20   like and yet it doesn't quite seem to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2000">TS</a>]

00:33:22   succeed just community it doesn't have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2002">TS</a>]

00:33:24   that one thing that people like which is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2004">TS</a>]

00:33:26   a story is a story that keeps them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2006">TS</a>]

00:33:28   guessing and I mean like with fine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2008">TS</a>]

00:33:30   pandered to whatever but you want to you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2010">TS</a>]

00:33:33   want to be kept like I'm i was going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2013">TS</a>]

00:33:35   through the story but it was just you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2015">TS</a>]

00:33:37   just saw where was going in there wasn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2017">TS</a>]

00:33:39   much surprised that's why the pacman [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2019">TS</a>]

00:33:41   steam so it out so much because there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2021">TS</a>]

00:33:42   was so little in this thing that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2022">TS</a>]

00:33:44   knew kind of like in a movie that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2024">TS</a>]

00:33:46   know anything they show you it's like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2026">TS</a>]

00:33:48   wall you know that's gonna be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2028">TS</a>]

00:33:48   significant is probably gonna save them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2028">TS</a>]

00:33:50   in the end and because no one else is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2030">TS</a>]

00:33:51   doing it like there wasn't enough stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2031">TS</a>]

00:33:53   for you because it like a good mystery [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2033">TS</a>]

00:33:55   even a short little mystery although I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2035">TS</a>]

00:33:56   mean enough stuff going on that you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2036">TS</a>]

00:33:58   immediately pick out a hobby when that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2038">TS</a>]

00:34:00   guy came into the room put that thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2040">TS</a>]

00:34:01   down that was important because so much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2041">TS</a>]

00:34:02   other stuff happens in the story and you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2042">TS</a>]

00:34:04   wrapped up in the people in this thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2044">TS</a>]

00:34:05   it was just everything was just poking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2045">TS</a>]

00:34:07   up out of the the ground really tall [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2047">TS</a>]

00:34:09   like here's this tower which is this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2049">TS</a>]

00:34:11   plot point this power which is this plot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2051">TS</a>]

00:34:12   point and it wasn't any meat on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2052">TS</a>]

00:34:14   bones you know you can't blame part of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2054">TS</a>]

00:34:16   that on again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2056">TS</a>]

00:34:17   ernest cline being a screenwriter first [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2057">TS</a>]

00:34:19   and foremost but I think also it reflect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2059">TS</a>]

00:34:22   its kind of a microcosm of the eighties [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2062">TS</a>]

00:34:24   culture that represents because I feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2064">TS</a>]

00:34:25   reading the book I feel like it's going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2065">TS</a>]

00:34:28   and watching like an eighties movie and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2068">TS</a>]

00:34:30   it's necessary you know watching war [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2070">TS</a>]

00:34:32   games where war games isn't higher and a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2072">TS</a>]

00:34:35   lot of its predictable but it's still [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2075">TS</a>]

00:34:36   careful careful youyou've anger John [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2076">TS</a>]

00:34:39   siracusa hear you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2079">TS</a>]

00:34:41   hey war games is one of my favorite [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2081">TS</a>]

00:34:43   eighties movies it's a it's a two-hour [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2083">TS</a>]

00:34:45   movie you know it's it like this yes is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2085">TS</a>]

00:34:48   a much longer than a screenplay but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2088">TS</a>]

00:34:49   isn't much of it is a much longer book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2089">TS</a>]

00:34:52   but i'd say it reads it reads like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2092">TS</a>]

00:34:54   two-hour movie for better or for well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2094">TS</a>]

00:34:57   that's because it is a two hour [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2097">TS</a>]

00:34:58   will be and it's you know it's not the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2098">TS</a>]

00:34:59   film has already been options so it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2099">TS</a>]

00:35:02   clear that he broke this and he is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2102">TS</a>]

00:35:03   screenwriter right so he wrote a screen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2103">TS</a>]

00:35:06   play in book form and now it's going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2106">TS</a>]

00:35:22   first screenplay which was a fan written [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2122">TS</a>]

00:35:25   script for the theoretical buckaroo [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2125">TS</a>]

00:35:28   banzai against the world crime Lee ok so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2128">TS</a>]

00:35:30   this is not his first half at writing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2130">TS</a>]

00:35:33   something full of fan references [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2133">TS</a>]

00:35:34   somewhere in the early nineties he got [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2134">TS</a>]

00:35:37   impatient because buckaroo banzai is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2137">TS</a>]

00:35:40   great movie and it claimed to have a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2140">TS</a>]

00:35:41   sequel and it wasn't happening so he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2141">TS</a>]

00:35:43   wrote one that kind of mash it together [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2143">TS</a>]

00:35:46   with big trouble in little china as you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2146">TS</a>]

00:35:47   do and it's pretty fun I actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2147">TS</a>]

00:35:51   contacted them back then emailed him and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2151">TS</a>]

00:35:53   told him I liked it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2153">TS</a>]

00:35:54   a friend of mine did too and he put her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2154">TS</a>]

00:35:56   hong kong couple your character into his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2156">TS</a>]

00:35:58   script but not you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2158">TS</a>]

00:36:02   like my uncle your character as much i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2162">TS</a>]

00:36:05   maintain the name platinum cowboy is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2165">TS</a>]

00:36:07   totally buckaroo banzai appropriate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2167">TS</a>]

00:36:09   anyway for fanboys I don't know if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2169">TS</a>]

00:36:14   people know this but the basic plot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2174">TS</a>]

00:36:16   fanboys is that people want to go see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2176">TS</a>]

00:36:19   the phantom menace before it comes out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2179">TS</a>]

00:36:20   because that's when people thought [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2180">TS</a>]

00:36:23   Phantom Menace was going to be a good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2183">TS</a>]

00:36:24   movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2184">TS</a>]

00:36:25   so these band of geeks getting a van [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2185">TS</a>]

00:36:27   they go cross-country and they break [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2187">TS</a>]

00:36:29   into Lucasfilm and I think they get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2189">TS</a>]

00:36:31   caught and they see the movie what's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2191">TS</a>]

00:36:33   weird is that the movie as made cuts out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2193">TS</a>]

00:36:36   an essential plot element which is that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2196">TS</a>]

00:36:38   one of them is dying of cancer [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2198">TS</a>]

00:36:40   yeah I've heard the story at us well and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2200">TS</a>]

00:36:43   that's that was actually that actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2203">TS</a>]

00:36:45   is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2205">TS</a>]

00:36:45   I i would call that being in the version [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2205">TS</a>]

00:36:47   that i saw i thought they put that back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2207">TS</a>]

00:36:50   i thought he basically held out until [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2210">TS</a>]

00:36:51   they put it back in because it was it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2211">TS</a>]

00:36:54   was a big deal like i remember them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2214">TS</a>]

00:36:55   going back and forth about like whether [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2215">TS</a>]

00:36:57   or not to take out this plot because i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2217">TS</a>]

00:36:59   remember seeing it with some friends and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2219">TS</a>]

00:37:01   like saying like telling the Masters [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2221">TS</a>]

00:37:02   like oh yeah they wanted to cut that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2222">TS</a>]

00:37:03   whole thing out there like that makes no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2223">TS</a>]

00:37:05   sense without like the movie has no plot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2225">TS</a>]

00:37:07   without without that but when i saw it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2227">TS</a>]

00:37:10   didn't have that in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2230">TS</a>]

00:37:11   I may have to go back and watch it again [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2231">TS</a>]

00:37:12   as the version i saw was just people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2232">TS</a>]

00:37:15   decide to go break in and see the movie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2235">TS</a>]

00:37:17   a week early for no reason which seemed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2237">TS</a>]

00:37:19   odd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2239">TS</a>]

00:37:19   yeah which is which is a week a week 1 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2239">TS</a>]

00:37:21   this little bit anyway what's especially [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2241">TS</a>]

00:37:24   odd about the movie is that these sound [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2244">TS</a>]

00:37:27   was done by THX sound so Ernie actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2247">TS</a>]

00:37:32   got to go to Skywalker Ranch where THX [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2252">TS</a>]

00:37:35   sound is located in a giant barn and he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2255">TS</a>]

00:37:38   was walked very carefully because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2258">TS</a>]

00:37:40   apparently somebody who's written a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2260">TS</a>]

00:37:41   script about people breaking into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2261">TS</a>]

00:37:42   Lucasfilm is not entirely trusted while [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2262">TS</a>]

00:37:45   walking around loose on Skywalker Ranch [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2265">TS</a>]

00:37:47   I'm going to call his star wars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2267">TS</a>]

00:37:49   credentials into question that always [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2269">TS</a>]

00:37:50   the events section where he talked about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2270">TS</a>]

00:37:53   that he had gone through all the Holy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2273">TS</a>]

00:37:55   trilogy with Lord of the Rings the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2275">TS</a>]

00:37:57   matrix and stuff like that all the one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2277">TS</a>]

00:37:58   of the ones listed with Star Wars and he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2278">TS</a>]

00:38:00   says you're supposed to watch the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2280">TS</a>]

00:38:01   original and prequel trilogy in that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2281">TS</a>]

00:38:03   order and the fact that he telling you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2283">TS</a>]

00:38:04   to watch the prequels at all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2284">TS</a>]

00:38:06   Matt right now now I i actually just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2286">TS</a>]

00:38:10   consult wikipedia tour by myself and i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2290">TS</a>]

00:38:12   did now i recall this so basically the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2292">TS</a>]

00:38:16   director [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2296">TS</a>]

00:38:17   they took my cancer story line out and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2297">TS</a>]

00:38:20   then before they released it they gave [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2300">TS</a>]

00:38:23   the director 36 hours to react it back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2303">TS</a>]

00:38:26   in which he did and it was released with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2306">TS</a>]

00:38:30   that in a release there was a release [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2310">TS</a>]

00:38:32   with it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2312">TS</a>]

00:38:33   oh my it was it's it's not it's it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2313">TS</a>]

00:38:36   actually a pretty good movie I i would I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2316">TS</a>]

00:38:38   thought it's pretty entertaining I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2318">TS</a>]

00:38:39   clearly it's from a guy's huge stars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2319">TS</a>]

00:38:41   heard it also has one of the best ending [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2321">TS</a>]

00:38:43   lines of any movie so I each clearly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2323">TS</a>]

00:38:48   this is you know he this is a guy with a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2328">TS</a>]

00:38:50   lot of appreciation for for pop culture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2330">TS</a>]

00:38:53   I guess what get stabbed me in the end [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2333">TS</a>]

00:38:54   is the the curiosity of whether he has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2334">TS</a>]

00:38:57   anything sort of his own to say because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2337">TS</a>]

00:39:01   I feel like everything he does [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2341">TS</a>]

00:39:03   piggybacks on this and if you strip away [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2343">TS</a>]

00:39:05   all those so much like another another [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2345">TS</a>]

00:39:07   series III really love that that is big [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2347">TS</a>]

00:39:10   on the lodges is spaced which is a show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2350">TS</a>]

00:39:13   that it is a sitcom which is slightly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2353">TS</a>]

00:39:15   different but there's a lot of a margin [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2355">TS</a>]

00:39:17   there but it it somehow is only adds to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2357">TS</a>]

00:39:20   its in service of its own story that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2360">TS</a>]

00:39:23   telling about people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2363">TS</a>]

00:39:24   I I mean there's there's if you clip [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2364">TS</a>]

00:39:26   that out it would the story would still [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2366">TS</a>]

00:39:28   hold on that's more like it's part of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2368">TS</a>]

00:39:30   the character of a space use references [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2370">TS</a>]

00:39:32   the same way like regular people like us [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2372">TS</a>]

00:39:34   to use references and then it's part of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2374">TS</a>]

00:39:36   our life but it doesn't define our [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2376">TS</a>]

00:39:38   flyers you know it will be older and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2378">TS</a>]

00:39:40   used them to illuminate a situation you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2380">TS</a>]

00:39:42   find yourself in the situation itself is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2382">TS</a>]

00:39:44   not directly related to some sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2384">TS</a>]

00:39:46   fire pop culture thing you know I guess [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2386">TS</a>]

00:39:48   what i like about Ernest Cline is that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2388">TS</a>]

00:39:50   believe his obsessions are sincerely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2390">TS</a>]

00:39:53   felt it's not like he went IMDb and said [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2393">TS</a>]

00:39:57   I'm going to make reference to the top [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2397">TS</a>]

00:39:59   five science fiction movies I are you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2399">TS</a>]

00:40:02   sure about that because that's one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2402">TS</a>]

00:40:03   the that's one of my complaints like I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2403">TS</a>]

00:40:04   have some of them i can say are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2404">TS</a>]

00:40:06   sincerely felt but in one particular [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2406">TS</a>]

00:40:08   aspect which is very essential to this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2408">TS</a>]

00:40:10   book had me questioning whether he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2410">TS</a>]

00:40:12   actually plays modern video games and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2412">TS</a>]

00:40:15   the most in particular I think it's easy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2415">TS</a>]

00:40:18   to like pac-man fine we all this not you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2418">TS</a>]

00:40:20   don't need to be like into pacman to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2420">TS</a>]

00:40:22   understand the concept of the perfect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2422">TS</a>]

00:40:24   game and stuff like that but the way his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2424">TS</a>]

00:40:26   game world works makes me think and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2426">TS</a>]

00:40:28   way he describes technology in general [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2428">TS</a>]

00:40:29   makes like is maybe he's not like maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2429">TS</a>]

00:40:31   he doesn't play modern video games maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2431">TS</a>]

00:40:33   he's not really that into technology you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2433">TS</a>]

00:40:35   know well yeah I think his future world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2435">TS</a>]

00:40:37   is not so much based on a logical [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2437">TS</a>]

00:40:39   expansion of mmos so much as reading [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2439">TS</a>]

00:40:43   snow crash I did the things he didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2443">TS</a>]

00:40:46   put it's far enough in the future you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2446">TS</a>]

00:40:48   know I had like I have a whole bunch of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2448">TS</a>]

00:40:51   the whole list of quibbles and notes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2451">TS</a>]

00:40:53   maybe i'll save them for the end more in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2453">TS</a>]

00:40:55   style but a lot of the stuff in the book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2455">TS</a>]

00:40:56   easy made me think that just gave me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2456">TS</a>]

00:41:01   hints that like if you set your thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2461">TS</a>]

00:41:02   really far in the future i'll give it to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2462">TS</a>]

00:41:04   compare with another sci-fi author who i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2464">TS</a>]

00:41:07   like but who just makes up ridiculous [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2467">TS</a>]

00:41:08   like vintage vintage make his technology [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2468">TS</a>]

00:41:10   of engine makes up to just nonsensical [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2470">TS</a>]

00:41:12   but it's so far in the future and so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2472">TS</a>]

00:41:13   distant we have that as long as a sort [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2473">TS</a>]

00:41:16   of internally consistent you go along [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2476">TS</a>]

00:41:17   with it and i found vintage stuff more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2477">TS</a>]

00:41:19   believable than this even though this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2479">TS</a>]

00:41:21   was like ninety-eight percent the same [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2481">TS</a>]

00:41:23   as our technology just you know a little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2483">TS</a>]

00:41:25   bit extrapolated but then he messes it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2485">TS</a>]

00:41:26   up i think the problem is if you set [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2486">TS</a>]

00:41:28   this book 200 years in the future [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2488">TS</a>]

00:41:30   you've got people living in a weird [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2490">TS</a>]

00:41:31   cargo cult obsessively redoing things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2491">TS</a>]

00:41:35   from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2495">TS</a>]

00:41:36   really long will you joke about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2496">TS</a>]

00:41:38   everybody's remaking movies over and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2498">TS</a>]

00:41:41   over and over again and soon we won't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2501">TS</a>]

00:41:42   have any movies left to remake I feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2502">TS</a>]

00:41:44   like yeah that runs out after about 40 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2504">TS</a>]

00:41:47   or 50 years [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2507">TS</a>]

00:41:48   well I think that be an interesting book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2508">TS</a>]

00:41:49   do that but it rate over that for a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2509">TS</a>]

00:41:52   thousand years and showed me that book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2512">TS</a>]

00:41:53   is habits have been less recognizable [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2513">TS</a>]

00:41:55   but then eventually realize way i figure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2515">TS</a>]

00:41:57   i see what's going on here there you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2517">TS</a>]

00:41:59   know this is what John Hughes movies are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2519">TS</a>]

00:42:01   like in the future you mentioned the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2521">TS</a>]

00:42:06   cargo cultures may be compared this even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2526">TS</a>]

00:42:07   more to snow crash [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2527">TS</a>]

00:42:09   yeah which I which i think is you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2529">TS</a>]

00:42:12   obviously one of the sort of seminal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2532">TS</a>]

00:42:14   metaverse style you know pieces and I I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2534">TS</a>]

00:42:19   feel like it kept crashing up against [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2539">TS</a>]

00:42:22   this in some ways and yet at no crashes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2542">TS</a>]

00:42:24   for me on arguably a better book but it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2544">TS</a>]

00:42:28   doesn't quite have the same links into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2548">TS</a>]

00:42:30   popular culture i guess but i guess [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2550">TS</a>]

00:42:32   maybe they're also just very different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2552">TS</a>]

00:42:33   things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2553">TS</a>]

00:42:34   did you have any of you guys find [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2554">TS</a>]

00:42:35   anything in particular that you felt [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2555">TS</a>]

00:42:36   like stood out from this is a book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2556">TS</a>]

00:42:38   because I heard that was talking to a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2558">TS</a>]

00:42:40   friend about ready player one the other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2560">TS</a>]

00:42:42   day and he said you know there's been a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2562">TS</a>]

00:42:46   lot of people saying that this is you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2566">TS</a>]

00:42:47   know this is a nerd classic and we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2567">TS</a>]

00:42:49   should replace you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2569">TS</a>]

00:42:50   ender's game with ready player one and i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2570">TS</a>]

00:42:53   just both of us were sitting there going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2573">TS</a>]

00:42:54   how working do you think this book will [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2574">TS</a>]

00:42:57   last is that backlash against orson [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2577">TS</a>]

00:43:00   scott card now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2580">TS</a>]

00:43:01   well I mean and that's one thing like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2581">TS</a>]

00:43:02   you know that's a whole separate issue [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2582">TS</a>]

00:43:04   but i think i would say ender's game is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2584">TS</a>]

00:43:06   a vastly better book than this I me and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2586">TS</a>]

00:43:08   it's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2588">TS</a>]

00:43:09   or perhaps that is suggested by people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2589">TS</a>]

00:43:11   who have not read ender's game and this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2591">TS</a>]

00:43:13   is the only science fiction book they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2593">TS</a>]

00:43:15   have ever read what i like is this a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2595">TS</a>]

00:43:17   game is this a game is a book and this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2597">TS</a>]

00:43:19   is a game specifically a real and it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2599">TS</a>]

00:43:22   hardly has a book that has any longevity [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2602">TS</a>]

00:43:24   to it or you know now this book has an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2604">TS</a>]

00:43:27   expired eight and it is like six months [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2607">TS</a>]

00:43:29   ago [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2609">TS</a>]

00:43:30   yeah I feel like it has to be read by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2610">TS</a>]

00:43:31   somebody exactly my age with exactly my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2611">TS</a>]

00:43:34   background somebody 10 years younger [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2614">TS</a>]

00:43:36   isn't gonna care about half of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2616">TS</a>]

00:43:39   I mean speaking as the 10 years younger [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2619">TS</a>]

00:43:41   contingent you're probably more than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2621">TS</a>]

00:43:43   that I think I have to interrupt this in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2623">TS</a>]

00:43:45   every show you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2625">TS</a>]

00:43:46   no I only because you all make me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2626">TS</a>]

00:43:48   speaking as someone who's young and hip [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2628">TS</a>]

00:43:51   this is jive turkeys it's something that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2631">TS</a>]

00:43:54   I was kind of considering was reading [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2634">TS</a>]

00:43:56   the book and then also afterwards I for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2636">TS</a>]

00:43:59   some reason after i finished reading and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2639">TS</a>]

00:44:01   I was contemplating the idea of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2641">TS</a>]

00:44:02   language built up entirely of pop [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2642">TS</a>]

00:44:04   culture references because i feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2644">TS</a>]

00:44:06   and not to go all high and mighty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2646">TS</a>]

00:44:08   judging society here but why not do it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2648">TS</a>]

00:44:11   go take it society we're about 50 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2651">TS</a>]

00:44:14   minutes in the podcast so decide no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2654">TS</a>]

00:44:17   younger younger children I kind of feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2657">TS</a>]

00:44:19   like on the whole a lot of the big [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2659">TS</a>]

00:44:22   things in the the big important stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2662">TS</a>]

00:44:25   that were into is all it's all older [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2665">TS</a>]

00:44:27   culture like it's cool and hip for a 13 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2667">TS</a>]

00:44:31   or 14 year-old to like nineteen eighties [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2671">TS</a>]

00:44:33   movies right now it's cool and hip to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2673">TS</a>]

00:44:36   dress in 1980 styles [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2676">TS</a>]

00:44:38   there's not really a defining you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2678">TS</a>]

00:44:41   dammit only missed it by 25 years [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2681">TS</a>]

00:44:44   yeah i was so close so close but it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2684">TS</a>]

00:44:48   it's strange and what the people who are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2688">TS</a>]

00:44:52   saying ready player one is going to be a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2692">TS</a>]

00:44:54   seminal classic I kind of wonder if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2694">TS</a>]

00:44:56   that's not based on the the trend of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2696">TS</a>]

00:44:59   culture right now which is basically [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2699">TS</a>]

00:45:01   regurgitating old things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2701">TS</a>]

00:45:03   well what goes in cycles i remember [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2703">TS</a>]

00:45:05   american graffiti was not released in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2705">TS</a>]

00:45:07   the time when people were dressing like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2707">TS</a>]

00:45:08   that but there was a nostalgia for that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2708">TS</a>]

00:45:10   period and there was kind of that that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2710">TS</a>]

00:45:12   craze of bringing back that thing but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2712">TS</a>]

00:45:13   that you know that past you know did we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2713">TS</a>]

00:45:15   ever bring back the sixties and we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2715">TS</a>]

00:45:16   brought back the fifties for a long time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2716">TS</a>]

00:45:18   still do that you get the fifties diner [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2718">TS</a>]

00:45:19   sixties totally I mean you know i think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2719">TS</a>]

00:45:21   when i was growing up in like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2721">TS</a>]

00:45:23   nineties when I was a teenager like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2723">TS</a>]

00:45:24   there were a lot of people were very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2724">TS</a>]

00:45:26   into the hippie culture that was clearly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2726">TS</a>]

00:45:29   a big part of the 60 silent mode when I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2729">TS</a>]

00:45:31   grew up in the eighties you know I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2731">TS</a>]

00:45:32   listen to the beatles a lot when I was a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2732">TS</a>]

00:45:33   little kid and you know i think that at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2733">TS</a>]

00:45:36   that point you know that band had been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2736">TS</a>]

00:45:38   broken up for over a decade [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2738">TS</a>]

00:45:40   so you know we always look back to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2740">TS</a>]

00:45:42   but the Beatles it's the Beatles is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2742">TS</a>]

00:45:44   good example something like long-lasting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2744">TS</a>]

00:45:46   that will go on for a long long time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2746">TS</a>]

00:45:47   because it was like you know the first [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2747">TS</a>]

00:45:48   big important rock band stuff like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2748">TS</a>]

00:45:50   but this is not the first big important [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2750">TS</a>]

00:45:52   scifi books on the first big important [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2752">TS</a>]

00:45:54   five book involving video games it's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2754">TS</a>]

00:45:55   the principles first of anything early [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2755">TS</a>]

00:45:57   well its most emphatically not the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2757">TS</a>]

00:45:59   first of anything that's the whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2759">TS</a>]

00:46:00   planet and it's not even the first like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2760">TS</a>]

00:46:02   iteration on pop culture it's not for me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2762">TS</a>]

00:46:05   it's not even the first meta meta [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2765">TS</a>]

00:46:07   science fiction now so I don't think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2767">TS</a>]

00:46:09   it's not sticking around to me know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2769">TS</a>]

00:46:12   yeah and if it is we will hunt it down [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2772">TS</a>]

00:46:14   and kill it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2774">TS</a>]

00:46:16   it's a fun but i still liked it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2776">TS</a>]

00:46:19   oh alright so we have Monty and Ashley [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2779">TS</a>]

00:46:26   the side of the angels I mean on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2786">TS</a>]

00:46:28   side of its terrible and i would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2788">TS</a>]

00:49:31   like if I was 13 years old and started [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2971">TS</a>]

00:49:44   really know much about this guy maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2984">TS</a>]

00:49:45   he's trying to write it like it's that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2985">TS</a>]

00:49:48   thirteen-year-old busy really does read [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2988">TS</a>]

00:49:49   like Wade the character in the book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2989">TS</a>]

00:49:51   wrote this book so what do you guys [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2991">TS</a>]

00:49:59   just a terrible writer don't give him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/2999">TS</a>]

00:50:02   that is it's very much in Wade's voice [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3002">TS</a>]

00:50:05   you can't deny that it's in in the 18 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3005">TS</a>]

00:50:08   year olds voice and they were in his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3008">TS</a>]

00:50:10   head [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3010">TS</a>]

00:50:11   I think it I think it reads very much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3011">TS</a>]

00:50:13   like a screenwriter tried to write a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3013">TS</a>]

00:50:14   novel it's supposed to appeal to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3014">TS</a>]

00:50:16   thirteen-year-old Deacon all of us [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3016">TS</a>]

00:50:18   the question about it being written by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3018">TS</a>]

00:50:20   like Walt it's it's as if it's written [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3020">TS</a>]

00:50:21   by weight is ok then can i write a book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3021">TS</a>]

00:50:24   that looks like a book written by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3024">TS</a>]

00:50:26   someone who has no idea how to write [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3026">TS</a>]

00:50:28   fiction because i can write that book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3028">TS</a>]

00:50:29   right now because I have no idea how to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3029">TS</a>]

00:50:31   write fiction and when they say this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3031">TS</a>]

00:50:32   a horrible box and no no you don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3032">TS</a>]

00:50:33   understand its it's from the perspective [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3033">TS</a>]

00:50:35   like this it's you know its first person [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3035">TS</a>]

00:50:37   is from the perspective of a character [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3037">TS</a>]

00:50:38   and the character in the book doesn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3038">TS</a>]

00:50:40   know how to write fiction so this is his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3040">TS</a>]

00:50:42   journal and that's why i'd make all the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3042">TS</a>]

00:50:44   same mistakes that have you known him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3044">TS</a>]

00:50:46   saying I'm going crazy reading this book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3046">TS</a>]

00:50:48   Thinking is horrible writer i am I going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3048">TS</a>]

00:50:50   crazy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3050">TS</a>]

00:50:51   if you can do that and simultaneously [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3051">TS</a>]

00:50:53   tell a good story than yes PG Woodhouse [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3053">TS</a>]

00:50:56   created Bertie Wooster who's an idiot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3056">TS</a>]

00:50:57   but birdie as a protagonist and as the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3057">TS</a>]

00:51:01   narrator still manages to somehow convey [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3061">TS</a>]

00:51:04   a complicated story that's what's it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3064">TS</a>]

00:51:06   like yeah they're there are books like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3066">TS</a>]

00:51:07   that where there will be written you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3067">TS</a>]

00:51:09   know its first person and the character [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3069">TS</a>]

00:51:10   tells you everything and it's in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3070">TS</a>]

00:51:12   voice of the character but the thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3072">TS</a>]

00:51:14   that burns about this is that Bernie [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3074">TS</a>]

00:51:15   doesn't come across as a if there's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3075">TS</a>]

00:51:17   difference between the weights rewrite [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3077">TS</a>]

00:51:19   it's not as if this comes across like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3079">TS</a>]

00:51:21   bad like not quite dramatically bad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3081">TS</a>]

00:51:23   writing because it's an automatically [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3083">TS</a>]

00:51:25   bed but like the point of it's very it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3085">TS</a>]

00:51:27   very simplistic writing like a lot of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3087">TS</a>]

00:51:30   sentences are like he did this and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3090">TS</a>]

00:54:53   about this book was is that you've it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3293">TS</a>]

00:54:55   over you finished it was that a it has a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3295">TS</a>]

00:54:57   bright color on the cover to show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3297">TS</a>]

00:54:59   something that I said it shows something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3299">TS</a>]

00:55:00   that I suspected for a long time does [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3300">TS</a>]

00:55:03   that you could make a good story about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3303">TS</a>]

00:55:06   the things that we enjoy about video [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3306">TS</a>]

00:55:09   games like you know when you're playing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3309">TS</a>]

00:55:10   a video game and you get you know you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3310">TS</a>]

00:55:12   it's an enjoyable experience and it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3312">TS</a>]

00:55:14   hard to relate let's relate that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3314">TS</a>]

00:55:15   experience to somebody who doesn't play [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3315">TS</a>]

00:55:17   video games perhaps and I like to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3317">TS</a>]

00:55:19   this this book even though it's kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3319">TS</a>]

00:55:21   just a minor aspect of it could show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3321">TS</a>]

00:55:23   like having this artificial rule the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3323">TS</a>]

00:55:25   world with this set of rules and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3325">TS</a>]

00:55:27   things you can do it in the end exploits [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3327">TS</a>]

00:55:29   that you have there can be fun and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3329">TS</a>]

00:55:31   like the fact that it was it was so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3331">TS</a>]

00:55:32   close to modern MMOs that it wasn't like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3332">TS</a>]

00:55:35   like ender's game or some other fantasy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3335">TS</a>]

00:55:37   type thing where it's just so far in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3337">TS</a>]

00:55:38   future it's like well we have nothing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3338">TS</a>]

00:55:39   like the now it's like we have things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3339">TS</a>]

00:55:41   like this now and people experience [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3341">TS</a>]

00:55:43   without the trail blowing up part but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3343">TS</a>]

00:55:44   you know experience in games this type [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3344">TS</a>]

00:55:46   of experience and see its kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3346">TS</a>]

00:55:48   exciting and I'll be interested to see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3348">TS</a>]

00:55:49   if they can make a movie out of it that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3349">TS</a>]

00:55:51   also expresses that you know this is the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3351">TS</a>]

00:55:53   fun that people have playing games and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3353">TS</a>]

00:55:55   here it is in the screen because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3355">TS</a>]

00:55:56   whenever they do it in movies it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3356">TS</a>]

00:55:57   always so horrible and even this book I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3357">TS</a>]

00:55:59   was kind of stay at the end or like sea [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3359">TS</a>]

00:56:01   and in the real world is the only place [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3361">TS</a>]

00:56:02   where you can really have any fun know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3362">TS</a>]

00:56:03   the game is fun to you know that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3363">TS</a>]

00:56:06   moralizing at the end i just want to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3366">TS</a>]

00:56:07   punch him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3367">TS</a>]

00:56:10   we have to like yes okay fine to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3370">TS</a>]

00:56:12   actual sex instead of cyber sex that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3372">TS</a>]

00:56:13   better I'm with you there but like video [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3373">TS</a>]

00:56:16   that's real there's a real fun [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3376">TS</a>]

00:56:18   experiences so that was my favorite part [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3378">TS</a>]

00:56:20   of this book is it showed it can be done [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3380">TS</a>]

00:56:22   and you don't have to pretend it's in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3382">TS</a>]

00:56:24   some fantasy world has no relation to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3384">TS</a>]

00:56:25   our own so maybe the movie of this won't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3385">TS</a>]

00:56:28   be good but the video game adaptation of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3388">TS</a>]

00:56:30   the movie will be a daunting want to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3390">TS</a>]

00:56:32   think about just like the matrix video [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3392">TS</a>]

00:56:43   adaptation of the novel of the video [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYCp1wI/3403">TS</a>]
