Hey, what's your EWPM? Wait....you don't know what that stands for???? Well neither did we! Not until Professor Parker stepped into class, wrote his name on the board, and then calibrated his smart pen on the interactive projector board by tapping the different targets that pop up.....does anyone else remember those? Anyways! Dan shows off his genius level intellect by getting a 100% on our pop quiz (teacher's pet) and then Prof P takes us through the world of speed reading; from testing, to technique, to training and beyond. Go test your WPM and let us know! But remember, reading is unique to everyone, so don't get caught up in the numbers. Have fun and find subjects that interest you!

There are no Legend of Zelda spoilers in this episode. That being said, we do talk about it too much probably. But after that, we bring you another edition of the still to be named 1 star review game. We basically just scour the depths of Goodreads to find some 1 and 2 star diamonds hidden in the rough. This week we've got you covered all the way from James Buffett to Twilight. Were they right?? That's up to you to decide! And send us in some of your favorite review finds!

Welcome, welcome, welcome! Join us here in the conference room at your beach vacation getaway of choice for a timeshare-esque presentation on book pairings! A wine or beer tasting probably would be a better comparison, but that's for you as the listener to decide. We have each brought some movie/TV recommendations based on books (or vice versa) that you might enjoy! Parker and Dan dive deeper into some great picks while Brett chose more of broad Chili's triple dipper method of recommendations. Enjoy! Please make sure to reach out and hit us up with your recs and your thoughts on ours!!

...BOOKS!! Join us us for the debut of a new segment where we discuss the history of book related subjects! Don't fall asleep just yet. It's a work in progress. We're going all the way way back to the origins of writing and writing surfaces to see how humans went from clay tablets to mass producing special editions of The Hobbit. It might be a Part 1 for now, but we hope you enjoy this deep dive into book history! Let us know what you think/if you want more!
