Episode 112 - You're Going to Mars! by Rob Dircks *Patron's Choice*
Our Patron Lucek requested that we read You're Going to Mars! for an extra special birthday edition of a patron's choice episode. Happy birthday, Lucek! As for the book, well - it's a McDonald's chicken sandwich.
Content Warnings: In addition to our usual barnyard language, today's episode discusses death, slavery, space, and stabbing.
If you, too, would like to force us to read a book (or other written ephemera), head over to our Patreon and select the $10/month tier to fast-track your book of choice to an upcoming episode!
