Internet girls that like the same things you do. Where you go after Douglas Adams and The Simpsons. Swords, dragons and gods. A strong distaste for high fantasy garbage. How fiction gives us a better understanding of reality. Losing your favorite author and personal guru. The eleven lives you live. All the books you love that you’ve yet to read.
In this episode, the boys talk about Terry Pratchett, as a very drunk Ryan tells Joey what to read next.

Talking about spirituality always makes us sound like a bunch of dicks, so here’s a whole episode about tarot cards, positive thinking, horoscopes and other witchcraft we totally don’t mind you enjoying.
Ryan didn’t remember what we talked about, so here’s a few quotes from the show:
“That word is tarot! Like carrot! That’s what it fucking said!” “You Americans and your shitty educations!”
Apparently, I’m an uneducated American because “I didn’t go to Hogwarts.” #themoreyouknow
“I am the master of funk!”
And to sum it up: We go from tarot to meditation, but ultimately, the theme is “do what makes you happy as long as it ain’t hurtin’ anybody.”
