Hello, fellow nerds! We are back with a brand new book club episode and we are reading Quicksilver, chapters 13-15!
Listen in as we discuss the following:
What does the mythology of shades tell us about this portion of the book?
Why does Deb go down a wormhole about space travel?
What stories do you know about mistaken identity?
Have you ever had an awkward celebrity encounter?
Visit ournerdiestthing.com for this week’s themed cocktail recipe, named “Quicksilver”.
