Summary

Prepare for the horror of complex Middle East politics, Goosebuddies. That's right, Chad, Paul, and Kevin cover R.L. Stine's Goosebumps 2000 book The Mummy Walks.

Book discussion begins at 11:15

OFF TOPICS: The Transformers + Magic The Gathering conundrum, money isn't real, which Transformer would you bake into a pie (if you had to)
