Theme Show - "This Universe is Just an Echo" with Middle West Ported Pumpernickel Rye
Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast
Are we the echoing memory of an already dead universe, that echo pulsing forever outward into the black depths of what exists outside what we know as reality?

Well, looks like it's going to be one of THOSE episodes. Good thing we have Middle West Ported Pumpernickel Rye to keep the ennui at bay!

OOPSISODE - What We Forgot About Navola with smoked Emerald Giant
Beards, Books, and Bourbon Podcast
It's not a repeat! We just decided that both the book and the bourbon needed a revisit...WITH A TWIST.
info_outlineIn the countdown to the season finale, Stephen and Mark stray from the path of horror into a subtle and delighfully complex scifi story about a monk, a robot, and the questions perhaps everyone should be asking of themselves and each other.
A subtle and complex tale deserves a subtle and complex bourbon paired with it, and this episode is no exception as our co-hosts sample Blade & Bow for the first time.
NOTE: In this episode, Stephen and Mark both struggle with pronoun usage for the characters. We decided to leave this in rather than edit and re-record. We felt the struggle to get it right and failing (multiple times) without giving up was all too appropriate for the messages and themes of the story. No one can ever be perfect, but the pursuit of being better and kinder to each other and ourselves is worth the awkwardness of the journey.
