Great chat! Ben is amazingly articulate. Per Grace talking about the Warm Hands of Ghosts, the explosion in Halifax harbour was the largest human made explosion in history until the Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It was massive and decimated the city, then a blizzard set in. It was before my grandparents immigrated there, but you can still see pieces of history from it now.
Excellent discussion gentlemen. Ben, I'll be keeping an eye out for that Spear Cuts Through Water review. Jimmy, I think you''ll love it and my fingers are cross that it will be a patron pick sooner than later.
Ben never fails to bring me an overly average amount of joy, what a gem. Even with the abrupt ending, this was just a blast :)) And gosh yes, I really need to read Convenience Store Woman because Earthlings by her was incredible! Thanks for the fun episode again ☺
@@thefantasynuttwork :)) I do have to say, I feel slightly betrayed by Ben. We could've had a EU friendly stream and then he left us all for Canada... those damn Brits, can't trust them
Another great one. I would love to see Sarah of Sarah Reads on with you again. Even if she's too busy to make videos perhaps you can lure her into a Chatting with Nuts episode??
Cosmere Moustache Jimmy is my sleep paralysis demon 💀NGL I'm waiting in the wings for your take on Stormlight 5 which will determine whether or not I'll restart the series. Reviewing is definitely a skill and unfortunately not many reviewers are very good at it, and because reviews don't get much initial viewership these reviewers have no incentive to improve. Then again the opposite is also true, some of the most reviewers on TH-cam heavily on outrage culture to get those views and have nothing substantial or meaningful to say. You've got the skill, Jimmy.
Just finished my reread of stormlight and i totally agree with Ben the action definitely takes a backseat when you know whats gonna happen. However i did enjoy ROW action the most on a reread because of all implications.
Started as a Overly Average Ben went to Above Average Ben then ended as Under the Weather Ben. Typical rollercoaster Jimmy episode! I love it. BTW such a fake accent. Gross! 🙃
I initially thought the guest was Joe Abercrombie. 😎

@@hectatereads105 wow! I had no idea it was that monumental
Absolute banger of an episode. Keep it going Jimmy, you are loved.
@@larrybdarts I appreciate that

The wave of the hand and the transition at the hour mark 👏

@@dianneeagle4686 I’d love to, Sarah is one of my all time favorite people on TH-cam.
Alan Moore is famously detailed, his script for the first issue of Watchmen (roughly 20 pages) was over 100 pages long.
Wow that’s wild lol
Thanks for another episode Jimmy.
@@iSamwise my pleasure

I appreciate that a lot dude
Hah, just got the Jerusalem box set for ten bucks when we were up visiting my sister. 😅
@@Paul_van_Doleweerd nice!
@thefantasynuttwork I've only read his work in comic form, Watchmen, V for Vendetta etc, will have to see how the Grand Wizard writes 😁
87th guest! not to forget Allen is probably 40 of those
@@tomsativa hahaha I think he’s like 14-15?

@@masonmclaughlin7905 I wish I had time and patience to reread ROW

Forgot to add I really like the new banner, very fancy.
@@andrewlavigne44 thank you!
Very fun discussion!
@@thefantasythinker thanks friend!
I love Convenience Store Woman! (And Earthlings even though that one is so messed up).
@@artbyandia I wanna read it!
Can I unapologize for Ben calling ⚽️ football instead of Soccer?
@@tomsthoughts9901 yes hahaha
Jimmy have you read Neuromancer? It and Hyperion are my reads of the year so far!
@@jacknixon2812 yeah read it a few months back, very much enjoyed it
Alan Moore recommendation: From Hell, From Hell, From Hell.
I’ll peep it!
Will you be doing a celebration stream at 20k subs or will you wait just a little bit longer until when you have double Allen’s sub count?
Channel will be over before I hit 20k tbh
