2017/12/30

So little of 2017 left, but just enough time to post our year in review! We discuss media we enjoyed this year, whether it was objectively good or not, including the University of Alberta murder-mystery-but-not-really-a-murder-mystery The Next Margaret, Haruki Murakami’s slow melancholy, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (again!), Roger Zelazny’s fiction, and more.

2017/10/06

In which we speak of books we never finished, or wish we had never finished. Normally, I would provide a list of the novels we talked about. But this time, I think it’s better if you go in blind. Download the Podcast (archive.org page) Marie’s blog Cory’s blog Source of our theme song

Episode 31 – Cartoons that Happen to come from Japan

Official OLS Episodes – One Last Sketch ·

Japan makes lots of cartoons, so our planned cartoon episode ended up being all about anime junk: Kill la Kill, Neon Genesis Evangelion, The Vision of Escaflowne, and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. Download the Podcast (archive.org page) Marie’s blog Cory’s blog Source of our theme song

2016/06/26

The Giver by Lois Lowry is the one book on elementary/high school reading lists that Canadians our age remember fondly. Why is this, and why is the cover so darn memorable?

2015/08/17

Our ill-advised experiment drags on as we play our way through Revolt of the Dwarves and The Dragon’s Ransom. Despite covering two books, this might well be our shortest episode yet.
