Liv and I return to talk about a game and a book that -- even based on our track record of extremely connected texts -- are maybe the most linked we've ever managed to dig up. Liv did some magic on this one as we look at Alex Garland's The Beach and Far Cry 3! Beaches, self-centered protagonists, imperialism, terrible consequences -- we get into it. Be sure to head to www.youtube.com/@aveyclub next Wednesday at 830 PM EST for our live chat on these texts!! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Graham returns in our oft imitated, never duplicated Homicide watch party K:D Ratio! What will our wonderful cast of detectives get up to this week?

We welcome the ever-curious Dia Lacina back on the show to discuss the wonderful bite-size detective game Makato Wakaido: Case Files and the twist is: Dia never played the game!

Join us, won't you, as Liv and I transport ourselves back to 2006 to a simpler, more psychosexually violent time as we cover the very beautiful, very weird, and very poor-decision-heavy Silent Hill!

Liv and I return on our now regularly scheduled posting day at 10 PM on Wednesday!
