While Andrew and Craig believe the joy of discovery is crucial to enjoying any well-told tale,

they will not shy away from spoiling specific story beats when necessary.

Plus, these are books you should have read by now.

I have the problem where I'm always convinced there should be something I should...

There's always something I should be reading. I should always...

Like all the books I read here on overdue, which is a podcast about the books you've been

meaning to read. My name is Craig. My name is Andrew and I'm convinced that there's always something

I should be reading for this show or for my life or for whatever work I'm doing, be it teaching

or whatever. I'm at the point where I can't read books unless they're for this show because I can't

I can't make time for like leisure books that I don't think I'll be able to talk about.

I've got workbooks to read like that's... kind of like research to do and I can't do that

on Malaysia time because I got read books for this show. You can't talk about your work books on the

you can't talk about like the art of stagecraft or whatever. Well, I'm not going to I'm not going to

read I'm not going to like talk to you about physics on the podcast. I do such a bad job at that.

Well then are you really getting anything out of the books that you're reading? It's well, I mean maybe not.

If I can't talk about it, maybe I'm not digesting the information. It's not it's not

probably that that we do that anyway. No, that's fair. You could make it to the end of this podcast

and have learned nothing about whatever book Andrew read. You can actually have learned like

negative you had you learned wrong stuff that you have to forget. We stole things that you did know

from your brain and threw it away. We put bad knowledge in there and it pushed some good knowledge out.

What do you think is in your brain that you don't need Andrew before we get to the book that you

are going to read? Oh man, I like talk about every commercial I saw between like 1992 and 2004.
