Focused on the good, the great, and the problematic in the best-selling novel series The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher. Josh is an avid Dresderner, Alyssa is brand new!
Together, they'll review and break down the series from different perspectives. Topics will include everything from the quality of the world-building and storytelling, to the problematic scenes and issues with the male gaze, and even to how accurate the crime scenes are (Alyssa is a coroner-investigator). Not to mention everything in between!
New episodes every Sunday (Saturday with Patreon sub!)!
