Ready Player One Episode 5: Noob’s Book Club

I told you. Now that things are slowing down, I can keep a schedule. I wrote both comics articles and released both podcast episodes on time this week. I need to take some time this weekend and update the banner for the page since that’s now a month and a half old. But, content is what matter. Speaking of content, I recorded two weeks worth of the calendar. I need to edit and upload those. For now, enjoy Ready Player One Episode 5. I told you I’d warn you, so here it is. If you want to skip the “therapy session” part of the show, skip from 9:17 until 11:50. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy!

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. With no additional delay, download and listen to Ready Player One 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. When I finish Ready Player One, I’m taking a break to visit Germany for my oldest son’s graduation gift. Then, I plan to read the next book in the new Dragonlance series.

Ready Player One Episode 4: Noob’s Book Club

Well, I disappeared for a little over a week. I explain my disappearance in Ready Player One Episode 4, but I think an explanation is necessary here, too. I took kids to play, soccer, and now baseball. Suddenly, I got from no free time to much free time again. Play is over this week (rehearsal ended last week), soccer ends in a few weeks, and only baseball remains. So, the schedule for this week follows. Today, Thursday, and Sunday. 3 chapters per episode and I finish right around the same time right before we leave for Germany.

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. With no additional delay, download and listen to Ready Player One Episode 4. I can’t wait to hear what you think.

Ready Player One Episode 3: Noob’s Book Club

Very late, but here’s Ready Player One Episode 3. I spent much of this week sick on the couch, so that’s the main reason. But, I found some time in between baseball and soccer to record, edit, and release the episode. One thing. This is the last week of play rehearsal, so hopefully that means more time to record. After Wednesday and Sunday of this week, I have a possible schedule for three days a week again. Then again, reading 3 chapters per episode might work out, too.

Ready Player One Episode 2: Noob’s Book Club

Best laid plans and all that. I wanted to release two episodes this week and maybe even get ahead on my reading schedule because it was April break from school. But, we had too much fun in the Berkshires with friends, so Ready Player One Episode 2 comes now. I already read and wrote my summary for the next episode, though, for chapters 4, 5, and 6. So, with that and three chapters the following episode, that puts me back on schedule.

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. With no additional delay, download and listen to Ready Player One Episode 2. I can’t wait to hear what you think.

Ready Player One Episode 1: Noob’s Book Club

After wrapping up Dragons of Deceit, we move on to the next book in Noob’s Book Club. Ready Player One Episode 1 covers the prologue and chapter 1 in the book. It also wrestles with some baggage that the book picked up in the past decade plus of its existence. But, I think we can all be adults and discuss both the book and the baggage.

Dragons of Deceit Episode 24: Noob’s Book Club

Noob gives the penultimate episode in the series, Dragons of Deceit Episode 24. After the fun of the previous episode, lots to process before the thrilling conclusion of both the book and this series. Though, truth be told, I’m ready to read something else for a few months. And, so, I will give you a surprise with the prologue “0000” from Ready Player One.

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. With no additional delay, download and listen to Dragons of Deceit Episode 24. I can’t wait to hear what you think.

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. As of right now, the next book in the series will be Ready Player One. I never read it and I saw it in one of my kid’s backpack. I have a plan to finish that one before the next Dragonlance book comes out in August.

Dragons of Deceit Episode 23: Noob’s Book Club

One day late on Dragons of Deceit Episode 23. But, as mentioned in the show, we are prioritizing our twice as many YouTube viewers as podcast listeners (about 6 vs 2 or 3). The show is here and we are hurtling towards the conclusion and introduction of the next book. Actually, up until Chapter 33, we limped more than hurtled, but what can you do? To be perfectly honest, I’m ready to put this book down and read Ready Player One.

Dragons of Deceit Episode 22: Noob’s Book Club

I looked back over the time/date stamp from Episode 21. I knew we took an unintended hiatus, but I never realized how long we took. Sorry about that. I mentioned in my most recent article that we have a tendency to go dark from time to time. But, I promise not to lose my focus in spite of the craziness right now. Play for two kids, soccer for one, scouts for one, and we are currently down a car until April vacation in three weeks. But, even with Dragons of Deceit Episode 22 coming out 2 weeks late, I planned the rest and we will be done this week.

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. With no additional delay, download and listen to Dragons of Deceit Episode 22. I can’t wait to hear what you think.

Dragons of Deceit Episode 21: Noob’s Book Club

Back on schedule with Dragons of Deceit Episode 21. I wondered if I would be able to get it recorded and released today because everyone got the day off for a snow day. But, after going out to clear the walk and driveway, I came back in to record. That’s why I might sound a little out of breath. In any case, I used the episode for some therapy, too. I really wish now that I had some people to discuss the book with. Oh well, maybe with time.

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. With no additional delay, download and listen to Dragons of Deceit Episode 21. 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.

Second Note: As of right now, I think the next book in the series will be Ready Player One. I never read it and I saw it in one of my kid’s backpack. Once I plan out the rest of this book and take a look, I will know better if I can finish it before August when the next Dragonlance book comes out.

Dragons of Deceit Episode 20: Noob’s Book Club

Simultaneously late and on time with this episode! Soccer Thursday, movie night Friday, and then more soccer yesterday means that both chapters 26 and 27 release with this Dragons of Deceit Episode 20. Tuesday brings chapters 28 and 29 and then 30 and 31 in the next two episodes. Still on schedule to end the series by the end of the month. Ready Player One came in the mail. I also picked up the prelude book to the new D&D movie. I thought it might be interesting to have that tie in, but I also want to take a break from D&D literature right now.

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. With no additional delay, download and listen to Dragons of Deceit Episode 20. I can’t wait to hear what you think.
