Show Notes
Join the guys as they login to the Oasis with Ernest Cline's Sci-Fi holy grail of geekdom with their coverage of level 1 of "Ready Player One" (AKA part 1 of the book). They begin their journey with a SPOILER-FREE section covering some background about the author and their general thoughts about the material so far including how it was different than expected.
SPOILER-FREE section ends: 45:58
Spoiler topics include: the intersection of gaming and religion, Wade's potentially problematic relationship with women, James reveals what classic movie he wants to star in, the introduction of all the major characters, their experience playing Joust, and the clever way the book ups the stakes by the end of level 1. Join them again early next week when they dive into level 2 & 3 both before they see the new film by Steven Spielberg!
