## Description

"Thank you to our Patreon supporters who keep the podcast going and have had access to this episode for a week already! Join them at patreon.com/372pages

The underutilization of O’Neil is downright criminal: as though A Confederacy of Dunces just mentioned Ignatius J. Reilly and then moved on.

Still, plenty of good stuff in the episode, including a detailed look at Bravo, some disturbing 'hot for teacher' vibes from Chaste over the half-bald troll-man, and an amazingly over-long chapter in the Magnetosphere.

**Reference alert**: Timer the cheese mascot, Snorks, Paul Anka’s shirt rant, and many more. In other words none from the current decade let alone the last.

**NEXT ASSIGNMENT**: Read through Chapter 32"

*Edison's Conquest of Mars* is a classic 1898 science fiction novel by Garrett P. Serviss. It was originally released serially in newspaper.

Episode 55

## Description

"Bram, (or is it pronounced Bram) Stoker’s *Dracula* followup *The Lair of the White Worm*, is not very good. But there’s a lot to discuss!

Adam Salton has willingly traveled halfway across the world to live with his elderly Grand-Uncle, which is frankly a clue that we’re not in for a relatable experience. But we were not prepared for just how unrelatable! We’ve got mongoose purchasing down by the docks, men who stare like hawks until a woman possibly faints, outfits made of stuff, and women who may be snakes or just smell like them. Plus a big scoop of racism on top!

Thanks to all our Patreon supporters, who get every episode early and are currently in a contest to write a worse sentence than Stoker! Join them here: patreon.com/372pages

All this plus some snippets from a rare audiobook of the unabridged version. For next time, read thru Chapter 16!"

Episode 46

## Description

"This is now an all Bleriana, all the time podcast. Our favorite unseen character, who may or may not still be a sex slave when this book ends in fifty pages, makes another appearance, as Alessia finally recounts the story of her evil Betrothed and her journey to England. Despite her saying 'I love you' dozens of times and being DTF no matter what recent trauma has happened, Maxim remains uncertain of their relationship’s standing. We examine the possible causes of this idiocy.

We are approaching 400 Patreon supporters! Thanks to everyone who backs us on there: we really really appreciate it and it helps us push through these terrible books! We’ll be giving our copies of The Mister to lucky winners once we’re done, so get in on the fun at patreon.com/372pages

We’ll also examine the relationship between Maxim and his headmates, pause for a brief ad for Jameson Irish Whiskey, and speculate on exactly what the hell Maxim was uploading to his Instagram from the airport. We’ll also speculate on the odds that certain events happen in the book’s final fifty pages.

For next time, there’s nothing left to do but finish the damn book!"

* **Interstate.** High-capacity vehicular system that serves as a terrifying conduit for drug dealers and other miscreants to easily access and corrupt small towns.

## Description

"Support the podcast on Patreon! We have a video tier now so you can see us mispronounce things in real time! http://patreon.com/372pages

An absolutely epic end to an epic book. Let’s list them off: giant gorillas, chimpanzees, giant ostriches, gigantic komodo-looking dragons, witch princesses in sheer linen gowns: it’s obvious Larry got a little excited and wrote the end of this one.

No Real or Fanfic; however Mike’s stats on this are discussed. Spoiler alert. They are not good. New book announcement coming very soon.

## Description

"Support the podcast on Patreon and see what you’re missing! It’s the only place to hear Mike’s amazing bonus real or fanfic! http://patreon.com/372pages

You know how when a friend says, 'You *have* to see this video!' and then thrusts his phone in your face and stands awkwardly watching your expression as you watch a video of a guy shooting a Roman candle into his dad’s crotch and you have to pretend to think it’s funny? Well, we *insist* you read this book. Here – here’s the book, read it and we’ll sit here and look at you while you do.

Seriously, it’s that bananas.

This episode may be on the long side but spend two minutes listening and you can just hear the joy in our voices as we dig into the world of sarcastic cats, and mucus that looks like snot, and princesses who are very good friends with Great Wizards, and on and on. Yes, we have Dumb Sentences and Real or Fanfic and we Steal Mail and we visit the Dark Web and a listener sends in her *Fun in Balloonland* mash-up, but even all that can’t express the utter insanity of this book!

Here’s the gallery of Antigua flags that listener Stephen made.

ASSIGNMENT FOR NEXT TIME: Read through the point you get to this sentence: 'Jonathan said, 'You’re right William! The wizards do not need to know that this is an actual battle! Tonight we will finally know who the better wizard is!' The Wizard Apprentice Jonathan walked away in anger. (We’re reading the ebook that has no chapter breaks, in case you are just joining us.) "

Episode 91

## Description

"After countless pages of Worldbuilding and freeing child slaves when our hero felt like it, Ernest Cline finally lets some things happen in this section. The action kicks off when a Gunter and a Sharter listen to a Morissey song in silence and it doesn’t let up from there! By the time we’re done, there’s been a kidnapping, a shareholder’s meeting, and the rollout of a new firmware update. Also, Cline introduces his most annoying tic yet: telling us information again that he just told us. And by the time we’re done with this section, there’s been a kidnapping, a shareholder’s meeting, and the rollout of a new firmware update.

"Help us pick the next book! We’ll be running a poll on the 372 Patreon: http://patreon.com/372pages

The Bark Squad wraps up Dodie Smith’s fever nightmare of a sequel in this final episode covering The Starlight Barking. Sirius the Dogstar visits, promising a lifetime of bliss in outer space. Unfortunately, some whiny mangey strays are all like 'Uh, no, we like having owners who mistreat and starve us' and so Pongo is forced to make a decision on behalf of all dogdom. Also Missus 'invents' the High Swoosh and we reach 'closure' on what the hell was up with Cruella’s metal clothes. There may be a list of dog names at some point.

Thanks to everyone who took the journey with us, we can’t wait until Disney finally releases their animated version. As threatened, we’ll be back soon with a Patreon poll to pick the next book!"
Episode 50

## Description

"It’s our 50th episode! And to celebrate, Trucking Through Time gets a little…. sexy! If you thought groins were stirring and tightening in the mister, just wait til you see the effect Light Feather has on Chad! (He’s not going to need his last name, if you know what we mean…)

Our occasional department of Amazon review guessing returns to inspect the history of, until we started this month, the sole Amazon reviewer of TTT. We’ve also got another bit of what one listener called 'Baroque Nonsense' when we visit the dark web to drop to poach content from another podcast.

For next time, read thru Chapter 14, page 234."

Episode 38

## Description

"Thank god this book was not 372 pages long. Neither of us could have handled that. Bob Honey was fortunately only 160, and even so, managed to have three different characters crap their pants, two of them in this final section. It’s a fitting metaphor for something, but we’ll be damned if we’re going to puzzle it out, we’re too busy enjoying our heated pool.

Also enjoying their heated pool? Our Patreon supporters! If you hurry and join them, you can enter to win Mike & Conor’s copies of Bob Honey and also get every episode early! patreon.com/372pages

There is a lot to discuss as we wrap up this entry: the appropriate theme music for one of Bob’s killing sprees, the practicality of the business model of dosing unsuspecting kids with acid, and what Penn might have left out of his wrap up poem.

This was quite a ride, and we’re thankful for everyone who took it with us! Hopefully our next target will prove a bit more whimsical and a bit less alliterative!"
Episode 8

## Description

"We’re done!!! After one last robot fight, video game speedrun, and  rote recitation of a popular 'geek' movie, we’ve finally reached the titular 372nd page.

Tune in for the Dumb Sentence *of the Book*, one last Fan-Fic or Real, Great Moments in Villains with Tiny Robots, and some extremely creative listener emails. Nathan’s alternate ending skit is available here and Taylor’s song is available here.

Episode 19

## Description

"We teased it in our last episode, but we’re finally ready to reveal to you: our next book is called The Eye of Argon. We figured, what could possibly carry the torch of Ernest Cline’s terrible books, and decided: how about a typo-riddled fantasy novella written five decades ago by a sixteen year old who never published anything again?

The Eye of Argon by Jim Theis is obscure, but it is available in print (VERY curious what the publisher makes of the sudden spike in sales!) Fortunately, it’s also available in every ebook format known to man right here. And if you want a true window into madness, check out the scan of the original issue of the Ozark SF Association “magazine”  it appeared in.

The Eye of Argon is mercifully short, so you could probably read the whole thing in one sitting, but for our next episode we’re only going to read **thru the first four chapters**. Yes, that includes chapter 3.5. No, we don’t know why there are multiple “half” chapters.

Email us your thoughts and fanfic at 372pages@gmail.com And if you’re interested in supporting our patreon, you can do that here: patreon.com/372pages You’ll get early access to our episodes (Patrons have known the book title since Tuesday!) and the warm feeling that you’re helping make nonsense like this happen!"

## Description

"Happy new year everyone! A new decade has dawned and we are still reading Shadow Moon. In this segment, to the author’s credit, some stuff actually happens! Unfortunately what happens is that a nude otter-man crashes through the roof of a tavern and the sacred princess takes a dump.

Fortunately, we’re able to gain more insight into the dynamic between our two authors via the magic of secret dark web recordings. We’ll also discuss with asperity Clucas’s new word fascination, 'implacable'. And we’ll wrack our brains trying to think up new varieties of vermin.

Episode 39

## Description

"We are back after a week in Nashville! While we were there, we figured that we would take advantage of the opportunity to record face to face. So we recorded a dynamic, hilarious, touching video rattling off some potential Next Book candidates (it was well shot too.) Unfortunately, Mike had a checked bag mishap with his camera on the flight home (the airline killed it, thinking it was a service dog).

So we have reprised the chat over audio for folks to listen to! We’ll discuss six candidates for potential new books. Listen and let us know what you think!

Weeks ago, when we wandered out of the trees and mountains of the plains of Antigua and hopped on that unicorn’s back, we never could have imagined the places she’d take us. Or the sheer, unbelievable, immense number of characters we’d meet along the way.

So this, our last episode of *Antigua: The Land of Fairies Wizards and Heroes* is a bittersweet one. We can only hope a Head Centaur blows dust on the writing ambitions of Larry and Denise to revive them and they finish volume 2!"

## Description

"Recorded live at Sisyphus Brewing in Minneapolis on April 11th, this is our first ever live show… Is how this post used to start before the recording of our live show was lost in an epic tech meltdown!

But never fear, Mike and Conor have reunited to rediscuss the Ready Player One movie, in possibly more depth than even the original discussion! Did it live up to the expectations of the gunter faithful? Or did Spielberg pull a Pendergast? Most importantly: Were there any Battletoads cameos??

Thanks to everyone who came out to the actual live show, and to everyone who encouraged us to share our thoughts even after the disappointment of losing the first recording. Mike will be reprising the first half of the live show on Like Trees Walking, available shortly.

## Description

"It’s our third episode discussing Bram Stoker’s “Lair of the White Worm”. If you like coherent horror stories, we apologize. But as a consolation, may we offer you dozens of sentences with upwards of seven commas in them?

We get the best of what Bram has to offer here: conversations with old men in parlors, absolute gibberish theories passed off as scientific fact, tea with attempted murderers, forest-planks, and of course, in a triumphant return, The Worm of Lambton. We are well aware of the amount of commas in that sentence.

Melissa wird durch Geschrei von Rachel aufgeschreckt. Sofort läuft sie in das Zimmer ihrer Adoptiv-Tochter, die gerade aus einem Alptraum erwacht ist. Rachel berichtet von ihrem wiederkehrenden Traum über die Artisten-Familie Grayson und dem Unglück bei dem die Eltern ums Leben gekommen sind. Es gelingt Melissa beruhigend auf Rachel einzuwirken, indem sie Atemübungen durchführen. Nachdem sich ihre Tochter beruhigt hat verlässt Melissa das Zimmer, schließt die Tür hinter sich und verschließt die Tür mit einigen Sicherheitsschlössern.

Am nächsten Morgen kommt Melissa nur schwer aus dem Bett und muss einige Medikamente nehmen, um in Schwung zu kommen. Schließlich macht sie sich für die Arbeit fertig und geht in die Küche, in der Rachel ihr Müsli isst und einen Kaffee trinkt. Letzteres findet Melissa nicht angebracht und erinnert an das Versprechen, dass Rachel keinen Kaffee mehr trinken wollte. Das Mädchen findet die Kritik unangebracht und erinnert ihre Mutter daran, dass diese mit dem Rauchen aufhören wollte, dies aber nicht getan hat.

Anschließend stellen beide fest, dass einige Lebensmittel nicht gekauft wurden. Übermüdet reibt sich Melissa über das Gesicht, als Rachel das Thema wechselt und endlich wissen möchte was für Kräfte in ihr schlummern. Melissa möchte darauf nicht eingehen und kniet sich vor ihre Tochter, um mit ihr zu beten. Diese lehnt aber ab und sucht das Gespräch was von Melissa ignoriert wird. Plötzlich aktiviert sich die Kraft in Rachel und sie macht einen Satz auf ihre Mutter zu. Diese stürzt zu Boden was Rachel sichtlich schockt. Anschließend läuft ihre Tochter aus dem Haus.

## Leben

### **Ein vermeintlich normaler Tag**

Wie schon oft hat Rachel den Alptraum von einem Zirkus in dem die Flying Graysons einen Auftritt haben und es zu einem tödlichen Unfall kommt. Schreiend wacht Rachel auf, woraufhin ihre Adoptiv-Mutter Melissa in das Zimmer kommt und ihre Tochter mit Hilfe von Atemübungen wieder beruhigen kann. Anschließend bittet Rachel, dass ihre Mutter den Raum verlassen und die Tür schließen soll. Anschließend versucht Rachel wieder zu schlafen.

Am nächsten Morgen ist sie noch vor Melissa wach und nimmt ihr Frühstücks-Müsli zu sich, als ihre Mutter dazu kommt. Diese bemerkt, dass sich das Mädchen einen Kaffee gemacht und teilweise getrunken hat. Melissa kritisiert das, da Rachel versprochen mit dem Trinken von Kaffee aufzuhören. Rachel kontert schließlich, dass ihre Mutter ebenfalls versprochen hat mit dem Rauchen aufzuhören, dies aber bis jetzt nicht passiert ist.

Nachdem beide festgestellt haben, dass einige Lebensmittel nicht gekauft wurden, bittet Melissa ihre Tochter den Bus zu nehmen,da sie gerade spät dran ist. Rachel sieht das als kein Problem an und wechselt das Thema. Sie möchte mehr über die Kräfte wissen die in ihr wohnen. Melissa kniet sich vor ihre Tochter hin und möchte beten, was Rachel ablehnt. Sie möchte endlich ein Gespräch, doch Melissa reagiert nicht. Plötzlich übernimmt die unbekannte Kraft den Körper von Rachel und springt auf, dass Melissa nach hinten auf den Boden fällt. Rachel ist geschockt und läuft aus dem Haus.
RiffTrax

Is there any serious chance you're this deep into a wiki based on a podcast from Conor and Mike without knowing what RiffTrax is? Never say never, I guess.

**RiffTrax** is a comedy business primarily built on providing humorous commentary tracks to preexisting movies of all kinds. Mike and Conor have both been involved with RiffTrax for its entire existence, or even longer. It began in 2006, an expansion on the riffing/commentary work Mike was doing with Legend Films for certain DVD releases.

Even more specifically related to *372 Pages*, RiffTrax produced a riff of Ready Player One.

## Description

"Support the podcast on Patreon and get access to early episodes, bonus materials, contests and more! Patreon.com/372pages

Conor states with confidence that this episode contains a chapter that is the dumbest and therefore the greatest of any that has been covered by 372 Pages!

The editor has taken her hand off the tiller and what we’re getting now is pure, uncut Cline. That means level-by-level coverage of a video game, stupid-by-stupid vignettes of classic 80s movies like Heat and Curly Sue and, just for fun, a fuel bomb explosion that slaughters dozens of innocents in a city park. But, hey – Samantha has an Annie Potts avatar!

All the departments as well as archival audio of Agatha Christie and a Dark Web gem that Conor found over Christmas while avoiding his family.

## Description

"Learn the next book before anyone else! Join the fun on the 372 Patreon. Bonus eps, Meet the Authors, Discord, and more! patreon.com/372pages

An epic podcast! Mike and Conor discuss the deep philosophical implications of Van Hagar, of avatars putting on haptic suits, of the personification of the collective intelligence of all humanity saying things like, 'You’re not gonna win, doofus!'

Cline was always in way over his head (from the second he thought to himself, 'Hey, I should write a book', of course), but when he moves away from listing his favorite video games and 80s songs into the realm of gigantic action scenes and the notions of what it means to be human, um, it doesn’t go well.

Coming soon — what’s the next book?!"
Episode 56

## Description

"To say that LOTWW took an unexpected turn in this section would be a slap in the face to unexpected turns. While it appeared to be inching (worm pun) its way toward an exploration of the enormous holes that TOTALLY PROVE the existence of giant worms, most of the second quarter of the book is dedicated to Caswall’s enormous bird kite.

Does he love the kite? Feel bad about the terror it hath wrought? Who knows! Stoker’s writing is no more clear than Oolanga’s expressions of love to Lady Arabella.

Thanks as always to our Patreon supporters who have been puzzling over the Sudden Birdemic all weekend. Join them at patreon.com/372pages

We’ll also listen in on a historical conversation Stoker had, and Mike turns the tables on Conor by having him guess Real or Fanfic?

For next time read thru Chapter 23"

Episode 12

## Description

"Mike and Conor cover an absolutely *thrilling* stretch of Armada in this episode. Hold your breath because we’re about to discuss all of this: not one but TWO phone contact exchanging scenes, not one but TWO briefings in a large auditorium, and to cap it all off: an EULA acceptance scene!!!

We’ll also explore some of the unintentional comedy in the book, fail miserably in identifying fan fic or real, and shatter the world record for use of the word “Clineian”.

Your assignment for next week: read up to Chapter 16, page 205 in our version.

We have t-shirts now! They are available here. Shirt designs by Lucas Antoniak, whose work is here.

Conor wrote a novel! It’s better than Armada! Buy it here.

Check out our 2018 RiffTrax Kickstarter. We’ll be announcing stretch goals soon and there’s one our listeners may be particularly excited about…"
