Hey everyone, we're so excited to share this live episode with you. These are some of my favorite

episodes to do. And right before we get into it, just one last reminder of the shows that I've

been plugging for seems like a full year at this point. But this is the last time you'll hear me say it.

I'll be in Des Moines, Iowa this week at the Funny Bone, Friday and Saturday,

December 8th and 9th, go to Kellinerskin.com for tickets. Now, real quick, since we performed this

at a live videotaping for the streaming series, Dry Bar Unscripted, we didn't have our usual microphones,

and there may be a bit of intermittent

sort of static. Just know, nothing's wrong with your earbuds. It's on our end, though I think

I've cleaned up most of it, and hopefully you won't even notice it through all the high-quality

mockery of today's book. And lastly, Dave and I have a Patreon for the bookpile where we post

weekly bonus mini episodes. Lately, I've been posting new jokes from my stand-up that I haven't

yet released to the public anywhere else. Also, on the Patreon, even if you're not a member,

you can still go to our little shop on our Patreon page and purchase

a customized 90-second video greeting from me and Dave that we will make for your loved one.

Just in time for the holidays, it's a gift that keeps on giving till those 90 seconds are up.

Go to patreon.com slash the bookpile or just click on the Patreon link in the

description to this episode. And speaking of this episode, here we go.

Today's book is about a man rushing around Rome, trying to save cardinals from a gruesome murder, and entirely failing.

Tonight, we're roasting angels and demons, a book written by Dan Brown, published by pocketbooks, and fact-checked by nobody.

This is The Book Pile, a podcast about the best of books and the worst of books.

I'm Kellanersk, and I'm a comic, a father, and I am so excited to roast this story that chronologically comes before the Da Vinci Code.

And just like Indiana Jones in the Temple of Doom,
