Wherein everyone gets introduced to Dresden, Murphy, Marcone...and Josh & Alyssa!!

We delve into the origins of magic in the Dresdenverse and get REALLY excited about a man talking about circles!

We also get a VERY thorough description of every woman in Chicago, and also meet some dudes! The male gaze appears early and often, and we try to weigh and navigate it's significance to noir storytelling.

Wherein Harry ruins his only friendship and gets ready to be murdered by no fewer than three different entities so....he takes a nap.

Act 2 is a bit downer but it looks to be setting up a great finale!

Your humble hosts try to sift through some muck and figure out what is noir and what is problematic...turns out its all probably both!

Wherein our plucky hero makes like Mickey, and there are naked people action scenes! We also answer the age old question, "Does Josh remember that creepy song from that obscure horror movie he was subjected to as a terrified child?"

Join us for the thrilling conclusion of Storm Front!!

Next Week Chapters 1-9 of Fool Moon.

Wherein Peter Jackson even said "guys....this is a little long," as we are forced to reconsider Murphy's characterization in the early parts of the Dresden Files....Dare we say it, but is she likeable?!?!

I promise you Josh really does love Harry Dresden.....but today its quite a bit of TOUGH love! Alyssa is disgusted with crime scene etiquette, and Bob continues to cross lines... Join us for part one of Fool Moon!

UPDATED AUDIO VERSION! Still sounds like me...but its better than silence! Maybe?

Wherein this book continues to surprise! Its definitely not great, but when you sift through it, there are pockets of REALLY good stuff in there! (I copy/pasted this from my tinder profile)

Marcone and Chauncey both go shopping for one wizard soul, slightly used. Murphy goes mad, bad, and sad in equal measures, Josh realizes his favorite character might be the guy with stains all over him and a big belly for SOME reason, Lyssy teaches us more gross dead body stuff and also learns to love the silly she-wolf, and there is an absolutely mind blowing action scene in the middle of the police station and the novel.

Hop in and join the convo for part 2 of Fool Moon!!

Sorry we're late this week, the super bowl exists and beer makes podcast editors sleepy.

Wherein wine and merriment make the cutting room floor look as busy as the Full Moon Garage. Your humble hosts learn to drown the world with a drinking game while Harry plays coy with both the Dark Lord of Chicago and the White God of Abraham--neither seems to be particularly fond of him. Tara makes cannibals of college students in record time, Lyssy's least favorite chapter appears a week late and some competent writing short, but so does our brand new "YIKES!" segue jingle!

(PS, I tried an audio cleaner upper thingy (technical jargon, sorry)....lemme know how it came out!

Wherein Susan brings out the big guns. And by guns I mean a cool coat. The Alphas get obliterated as quickly as a jobber coming out as number 5 in a 1990s Royal Rumble, and some great character moments come up, I shit you not!

And finally, Josh is forced to submit to the whims of Miss Minutes or whoever else is running time and space these days: 2 episodes for the price of 1!!

To juice our download numbers (kidding...we just talk too much) we split this one in twain.

Wherein we learn that two podcasts are better than one, Tera's a silky smooth badass wolf, Harry's a scary creepshow wolf, the FBI guys are jerk wolves, and Murphy is still channeling Dick Wolf.

There are cool special effects and even cooler magical lore, a fine conclusion to a meh story, and a very weird reference that can only really be rooted in the Patriarchy. Its all there for the chewing--hop on in for the conclusion of the conclusion pod-isode for Fool Moon!!
