Yes, late again. This weekend, we watched our niece in Willy Wonka Jr., went for an hour and a half snow shoe with the dog (got a little lost), watched a comedy show to help raise funds for Liam’s prom, went to the annual train show at the Big E and took Liam and Quinn to play practice. It’s always one weekend a month or so that is absolutely bonkers. Nevertheless, Dragons of Deceit Episode 5 is live.
Give it a listen and let me know what you think. What did I do right? What can be improved? I want to make this work and take constructive criticism well. Chapter 8 scheduled to come out tomorrow with Chapters 9 and 10 to follow on Wednesday and Friday.
With no additional delay, download and listen to Dragons of Deceit Episode 5. I can’t wait to hear what you think.
Note: If you want to read along, find a copy at your local (or multinational conglomerate) book store to purchase and add to the conversation. I hope you enjoy my return to the podcasting arena and I look forward to bringing more content as time allows over the next few months. Also, I know we have time until I get there, but I am taking suggestions for the next book in the book club. Fantasy, science fiction, based on gaming. Any of those genres work in the context of the page’s overall theme. Depending on how long it takes, some horror can be a possibility, too. For some other context, I also like to read Brandon Sanderson, but am open to most suggestion.
Yes, late again. But, even though I needed to record the episode again, I still recorded, edited, and released it more or less in the range of possibilities. Dragons of Deceit Episode 4 is live. My allergies are in an uproar, so I apologize a bit for the sound quality
Give it a listen and let me know what you think. What did I do right? What can be improved? I want to make this work and take constructive criticism well. Chapter 7 comes on Friday.

In keeping with tradition, I promised Dragons of Deceit episode 3 on Thursday of this week. The episode explains why it delayed until today. It also gives an updated schedule since I covered both chapters 4 and 5 in this one.

As mentioned in the episode, I meant to release this on Saturday. I read both Chapter 2 and 3 yesterday during Quinn’s Swimathon event. Then, I meant to split this into two episodes for each chapter. But, I combined them to keep the 10-15 minute run time. And so, loyal listeners! Here at last is Dragons of Deceit Episode 2 of Noob’s Book Club.
Give it a listen and let me know what you think. What did I do right? What can be improved? I want to make this work and take constructive criticism well. Because I made this episode Chapters 2 and 3, Chapter 4 will now come on Thursday. So, the new schedule looks like this.
On weeks where I write 3 articles (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday), I plan to have 2 chapters on Tuesday and 1 on Thursday. The weeks that I only write two articles (Tuesday and Thursday), I plan to have episodes with 2 chapters on Wednesday.

As mentioned in the episode, I meant to release this yesterday. Instead, I came home and worked out. Then, Aiden needed to be driven to the dentist and soccer. In between, we ate dinner at the Gardner Ale House. Fear not, loyal listeners! I remembered and here at last is Dragons of Deceit Episode 1 of Noob’s Book Club.
Give it a listen and let me know what you think. What did I do right? What can be improved? I want to make this work and take constructive criticism well.

We love 90s Comic Books (15:50)

Nerd Rage? (36:33)
A brief memorial to 2099 leads to both of us trying to figure out where all of the nerd rage and hate comes from. Why didn’t you like the new Marvel heroes? What is wrong with rebooting the numbering every few years? We have some theories.
