This was a fun chat, and I'm always happy to talk with Jason, even when we disagree (and that's quite often.) What do you think of Lovecraft? Do you fall into Jason's camp or mine? Let us know in the comments!

On this week of Days of Our Sooners, Britton and his dad/co-host celebrate the unlikely victory of their beloved Sooners against the Auburn Tigers, and their acknowledgement that Sooner magic exists. They thought that the Tigers had their Sooners' number, and yet somehow their beloved Sooners pulled it out. They talked about the continuing offensive stagnation and how the defense is now starting to struggle too, as well as how the hell their beloved Sooners will beat their vilest foe down in Austin, Texas. The Auburn game was an ugly win for their Sooners, but it's a win nonetheless. Can the Sooners beat their hated foes in Austin? Find out next time on Days of Our Sooners...
We're taking a break since it's a bye week. See you in two weeks!

On this week of Days of Our Sooners, Britton and his dad/co-host Todd lament the first loss of their beloved Sooners to the ferocious Tennessee Volunteers, led by the former Sooner Josh Heupel. They were left constantly frustrated by the ineptitude on offense and once more wondered how the Sooners were going to survive in the SEC. There are many question marks an serious concerns rolling forward with all the injuries and the skills of the offense. Will the Sooners be able to overcome the hurdles? Find out next week on Days of Our Sooners...

Originally this was meant for @Talking_Story's Town Hall segment, yet alas it was too long. So I decided to upload it to the channel. Today I'm going to show you where the magic happens, as well as all the book shelves where I keep my books and comics alike.
I hope you all enjoy!

Welcome back to Britton's Hang Out Hour, and today I am joined once more by returning guest AJP from @AJPzaworld. It's always fun having him on and we had yet another great conversation covering a myriad of topics, such as my reluctance to read R. Scott Bakker, I rant once more about how I'm sick of Fight Club, Fists of The North Star, the works of Alejandro Jodorowsky and his...oddball imagination, our mutual appreciation of Garth Ennis, AJP's undying love for Joss Whedon, AJP talks about some of his past relationships and dates he's been on, Francis Ford Coppola's new film Megalopolis, Iceberg Slim's Pimp and just how fucked up that book is, and so much more!
Thanks AJP for coming on once again! Next week's guest will be Taylor from Maed Between The Pages! Can't wait!

Once more I am joined by my partner in crime Jason Fuhrman as we discuss the second book of Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach trilogy since the fourth book Absolution will be coming out this October. I discuss why I may like Authority more than Annihilation, how Jeff VanderMeer didn't repeat himself with the follow up to Annihilation, why I think VanderMeer is the best science fiction writer living today, and so much more!
Thumbnail is by Jason.

Britton's Hang Out Hour is back, and today we have a returning guest with Raf from Raf Blutaxt. It's always fun hanging out with Raf and hearing his takes on things. We talked about a myriad of things including his recent return to YouTube after some time away, issues with technology, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, Neil Gaiman's impact on the fantasy genre, our issues with people who want to distance themselves from the fantasy genre, my gripes with the Malazan fanbase, Raf talks about where to start with Discworld, I talk some more about Tolkien's impact on the fantasy genre, and so much more!
Thanks Raf for coming back on, hopefully I'll get you back again. Next week's guest will be Logan from Dr. L Reads!

Greetings peepers, panty sniffers, and prowlers and welcome back to another review, where today I'm going to review James Ellroy's breakout novel The Black Dahlia, where he began establishing himself as one of the modern greats of noir fiction. But does it live up to Ellroy's 'demon dog' reputation? Well, come and see.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another episode of Britton's Hang Out Hour, where today I'm joined by indie author and YouTuber John A. Douglas, who's a pretty nice guy and an accommodating guest. Topics we discussed included why he chose to go the indie route with his books, why indie fantasy has become such a phenomenon on our side of the internet, his humble beginnings as a writer, some of the writers who influenced him, our mutual enjoyment of Critical Role, my gripes with people who sneer at animated shows and movies, some of our experiences playing D&D and the unpredictability that comes from playing it, and so much more!
Thanks John for coming on, it was a lot of fun! Next week's guest will be PL Stuart! Can't wait!

Today I am joined once more by my partner in crime Jason Fuhrman as we talk about one of our mutual favorites: Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer. It's been 10 years since the Southern Reach trilogy first came out and Jason and I are here to commemorate it. We talk about how we first came across the series, the themes it covers, and why it affects us still after all these years.
