Good stuff



1. Then We Came to the End by Joshua Ferris

I just finished reading this book. It's absolutely amazing. You can read my review of it here.











2. Robin Ince on a podcast


This week, comedian Robin Ince guest stars on Poddelusion.co.uk Podcast to plug Nerdstock. He comes in around 25:31. link to mp3







3. Black Books Commentary

I started watching the commentary to Black Books. They don't do the normal commentary thing. Instead they just make comments on how each other look. Tamsin has too much makeup or Bill has big ears or Dylan has magic sticking up hair or Tamsin looks like an alien in a tunic with a lavendar metal ball. It's strange, but still pretty funny.









4. Vlog Brother/Nerdfighter News


Author John Green has his first son, a baby named Henry. Meanwhile his brother Hank is fostering this adorable greyhound which they'll keep if they can think of a name and if it doesn't eat their cat. Detail in this video.







5. Ricky Gervais Guide to the Human Body

This episode of the famous podcast came out today, and boy was it hilarious. Karl's childhood memories are when the family used tic-tacs for cat litter, the time he met a ghost that he can't remember, and one time getting stuck in a field for an hour and a half because he'd gotten lost while walking and reading at the same time. iTunes--check it out.
