Shelved By Genre Bonusode - Jorge Luis Borges's Labyrinths
Added 2023-10-06 11:55:42 +0000 UTCThe band sits down to jam about everyone's favorite interesting writer with (some) terrible ideas, Borges. We rank our favorite stories from the collection, someone reveals a secret, and somehow they find themselves along the way. Or some version of themselves, that it. It's a rollicking good time with fun for the whole family, if your family likes reading short stories about the internal monologues of Nazis or considerations of the mathematical possibility of all books ever written existing in a space.
Note that we talk about a small section of the next actual Shelved By Genre reading in this episode -- a little part of the last part of Sword of the Lictor. It is a piece of information that does not matter at all on its own, and is mostly notable rather than a major spoiler.

It's fun that the Harry Potter jape mentioned in this is lost to time thanks to the ephemeral nature of Social Media generally and also Twitter in particular.
