310: The Tower of Babel

Ever heard of a Chiasm? I hear it was the basis for naming the band "Kris Kross."

In this episode A.J. dives into the nuts and bolts of what makes writing good or bad. In Graeme's words, this episode was "shorter than it felt." So . . . buckle up for fun.

Thomas guides us through a book that would only improve with Daniel Day Lewis in the cast.

In this episode we finish Graeme's series on Lewis and his planets.

Did C.S. Lewis organize his Narnia books around the medieval planets? Graeme sure thinks so. Thomas doesn't. This episode covers the two books connected to the sun and moon.

OOOOOooooh buddy it's a journey.

In this episode, we discuss part one of the book, in which we find out that we're all despairing, even it you are pretty sure you're not. Rosy book, this one.

In this book, Graeme teaches us Michael Ward's theory about Narnia---how each book corresponds to one of the planets. Sounds like something Lewis would do. He's a nerd.

In this episode, A.J. talks about George and Lennie and their unfortunate run-in with wannabe boxer.

In this episode, Graeme finishes what he began in episode 299: a full retelling of Dostoyevsky's "Crime and Punishment." Honestly, I would listen to more audiobooks if they were just Graeme telling me stories.
