Strap yourselves in and pick a good safe word, because Andrew and Craig both read Fifty Shades of Grey for this, our landmark 50th episode! Boy are they sorry!
A warning up front in case you're not familiar: this is a book that is mostly about a BDSM relationship. Our show this week has swearing and pretty graphic descriptions of sex, so keep that in mind while listening.

0:00.0 | Hi, everyone. This is Andrew. Normally, we try to keep things clean. We try not to swear too much. |
0:06.8 | We try to make it kid friendly because of all you people out there listening with your kids, I guess. |
0:11.6 | This week, because of the book that we read and because of the way that we feel about the book that we read, |
0:17.2 | there is going to be some swearing and there is going to be some discussion of graphic sexual acts. |
0:26.2 | Would you say that's accurate? I would say that's accurate. |
0:29.8 | Okay. Just everybody, strap yourselves in. Pick a good, safe word and we'll see you in a second. |
0:55.5 | So here's a confusing thing. I got a call from my landlord this morning at like 10 o'clock and apparently they need to do some work on the house next door to us, which involves, you know, getting up on a ladder or something or other. |
1:21.0 | It's not working if you're not on a ladder. That's what I've heard. |
1:26.1 | And she woke me up to see if I would let the dude with the 40-foot ladder drag it through my house so that he could get it into the backyard area because he needed a straight shot and the like South Philly trash alley behind our house. |
1:48.8 | Was locked or something, which is kind of bad because that's sort of a fire exit. All things considered. |
1:56.4 | So I'm going to need to take a look at that. But then when I went out there, he never showed up and I just watched him drag it over a fence and then got it to where he needed it to be. |
2:10.0 | So there are some dudes outside my house banging on walls, which is weird because I think there are also people moving into that house today, some moving truck. |
2:21.5 | So they're just they're getting in right under the right under the line here. |
2:25.9 | Yeah, the weather, you know, the weather's been really bad and I think they're trying to get it done before we get this next batch of really terrible weather here on the East Coast. |
2:37.4 | Welcome to Overdo. This is a podcast about the books that you've been meaning to read, whether you like it or not. My name is Craig. |
2:44.4 | And my name is Andrew. And did you know Craig? Did you know that it was our 50th episode this week? Did you know? I knew. |
2:52.1 | I think I knew probably because you told me. Yeah, because we've been planning this for a while. |
2:56.8 | We've been planning this one for a little while. We have special special idea for this episode, which you already know if you are listening to it because it's titled as maybe they don't maybe there's not paying attention. |
3:11.5 | Maybe yeah, maybe someone is playing this on a radio station. They have no idea what's going on. |
3:16.0 | Anyway, so because this is our 50th show, both Craig and I read 50 shades of gray by EL James, because they both have 50. |
3:27.3 | Get it. Oh, I didn't know that that's why we did that like 50 shades of gray, 50 episodes. That's clever. |
3:33.9 | Yeah, right. Did you think of that yourself? I did. You didn't actually help somebody on the internet. |
