Hey everyone, if you're a long-time listener, you might recognize this episode as one we did many years ago when we first read Dune by Frank Herbert on this podcast.

But we are actually remastering and re-releasing the entire Dune Book Club series for new fans who are diving into the books after having watched Danny Vilnov's Blockbuster films.

So whether you are a longtime fan and you're re-listening to this series,

or if you're a new listener who just picked up the book for the first time

and are looking for a spoiler-free guide through the world of Dune,

we welcome you, and we're so excited that you're here.

Thank you so much for listening.

A podcast. Scroni script.

There may be listeners nearby.

That could be the remains of a radio broadcasting station.

This is pretty far south into the RSS feed.

This has the feeling of a Gomjabar episode.

Are we certain the episode will be good?

Kinds promised it would be.

Hit play.

Thank you. Welcome to Gomja Bar, your guide to the iconic world of Dune.

We'll be exploring the themes, philosophies, and characters found in the sandy depths of this vast universe,

from Frank Herbert's groundbreaking novels to the adaptations on film and TV.

My name's Aboo.

And my name's Leo.

And Leo.

Yep.
