Seth was under the weather after returning from doing the Cotswold Way hike in England, so to protect the other guys from germs, this was recorded on his backyard patio, so please forgive the neighbor dog’s squeaky toy accompaniment.
Patio-cast! This worked out well enough that we’ll definitely do it again. Perfect day in Western Oregon.
Rankings!

Post-credits scenes for this episode include some discussion of the Cotswold Way hike and meeting up with a friend of the podcast.

We discuss the final four episodes of Season One of Murderbot, then discuss the season as a whole, and then have a long post-script about what project to undertake after we cover one more robot story. (Hint: both possibilities begin with the letter S.)
We’re doing a Murderbot series! We reacted to the trailer, and now we’re covering the first two episodes. We’ll do at least two more of these to cover the full season.

This time the guys look at Mickey7, by Edward Ashton, and its new adaptation, Mickey-17. We pretty much go full spoilers for everything, so be warned. The book takes a couple of days to read, and the movie will be on streaming soon.
