HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Kristen Rogers-Anderson has always had an interest in the world of the supernatural, and she's decided she'd like to conduct an investigation. Aided reluctantly by her friends Will & Bobby, Kristen goes looking for trouble. And trouble finds her. What started as a fun examination of the paranormal quickly turns into a dark investigation of a serial killing that might be a demonic ritual. It's TalkBomb's Halloween Special! Turn off the lights, close your eyes, and enjoy! Want more IllumiNaughty? We released a 2 hour long commentary track (basically the Making Of) exclusively on Patreon!

WB2045.COM IS THE HOME OF BOOK CLUB SHMOOK CLUB! This week on #BCSC, it's time to leave London Below and it's definitely time to leave Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere! Unfortunately this story just never stuck with us. Ultimately we are left feeling similar to how we felt a couple of weeks ago: it's not fun to read, but mostly because we're just not fans of these fantasy odysseys. Your mileage may vary, basically. But don't worry, we still have a lot to talk about here! What worked? What didn't? And hey, what's on TV!? BCSC@WB2045.com! @WB2045! @KrissyPajamas! @WillRogers2000! DONATE! Facebook!

WB2045.COM IS THE HOME OF BOOK CLUB SHMOOK CLUB! This week on #BCSC we're diving into the second Cormoran Strike novel! Written by Robert Galbraith (aka J.K. Rowling), The Silkworm follows The Cuckoo's Calling almost directly. Cormoran Strike has enjoyed (to an extent) a brief period of fame, and his detective business is booming! But now he's taken a new case: searching for a controversial book writer who has gone missing. This, along with increasing personal and professional tensions with his assistant Robin, have Cormoran Strike in some deep doodoo indeed! Is it obvious I couldn't think of a good way to end that last sentence? Anyway, just like Cormoran Strike, the Rogers kids are on the case! We read the first half, and we're hear to point out all the clues! I'm sure we didn't miss a thing! BCSC@WB2045.com! @WB2045! @KrissyPajamas! @WillRogers2000! DONATE! Facebook! Instagram! iTunes!

WB2045.COM IS THE HOME OF BOOK CLUB SHMOOK CLUB! This week on #BCSC we've hit the 100% mark on Jurassic Park, which means we get to close the book and throw it immediately into the fire. Oh, also, we have no choice but to talk about it for you good people. You deserve better than this book. It's a huge conversation though! I think we touch on everything that happens in the book and everything the book gets wrong. The science, the repetitive theorizing about things that don't matter, the oppressive lack of tension. If you want to read a book about dinosaurs rampaging this book isn't for you. If you want to read a book about the science and ethics of cloning, this book isn't for you. If you want to read a book where people think in a very inhuman mathematical way about dangerous situations, with a total lack of action or emotion, this book is all yours. You can keep it! Also at play: #JurassicWorld talk! Theories about future sequels, recaps of past sequels, and Chris Pratt! Hooboy! ENJOY!! BCSC@WB2045.com! @WB

Rowling! The story of a hard-boiled detective and his plucky assistant, The Cuckoo's Calling is PACKED with adult content, adult language, and human peril, and perhaps it's the result of J.K.
