Hey, it's me Destin. Welcome to No Dumb Questions. We like to do this thing every few episodes

0:04.8

where we do a book review because Matt and I really like books and we did Ready Player One

0:09.1

last time, which is a real sciency sci-fi type thing. This time we're going in Mads Lane,

0:14.5

which is history. So we reviewed the book Devil in the White City. So a bunch of you downloaded

0:19.3

this book on Audible. You can get a free trial by going to audible.com slash in DQ,

0:24.8

download the book, listen to it and you'll get to hear our reaction to the book. It's a really

0:29.6

fun, really engaging. But what's really cool about this is we actually went to Chicago.

1:27.0

listening to the book they choose to. However, I'm a big fan of the book and I think they should.

1:32.1

Yeah, I totally agree. How many times did you read it? Did you get through it twice?

1:36.6

I went about one in three quarters. Did you listen to it super extra bonus fast on the second try?

1:42.6

I went 1.25 on the first try because the narrator was just a little bit slow for my taste and I went

1:48.0

1.5 on the second go through it. But you slowed it down every time you spoke French, right? Yes, of
