300
They marched. For books, for comics, for kush, they marched. In the year 2023 A.D., two brothers traversed the plains and panels of one of the most praised comics in literary history. The story of King Leonidas and his brave 300 was witnessed first hand by this gruesome twosome, and now they will share with us the trauma and turmoil that they experienced. From the brutish mind of Frank Miller, "300" is comic of glory, honor, justice, and victory. The Battle of Thermopylae has never yet been told in such a grotesquely beautiful fashion. From bong hits to fire pits, the Brothers Hollis are proud to present a historical event unlike anything that has ever been attempted. What was it like? What did they witness? These questions will all be answered in this epic episode.

Less Than Zero
Los Angeles: The land of amazing beaches, famous restaurants, coked out teens, parties, clubs, and... Elvis Costello? Come see the many inhabitants of this morally decayed breeding ground of drugs, prostitution, and plenty more debauchery in this episode of Get LITerature.
The fucking place should be wiped off the face of the earth. To be anything to do with rock and roll and to go and live in Los Angeles is I think just heading for disaster. - David Bowie

The Man Who Folded Himself
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to fuck yourself?... Literally? That question can be answered on this episode of Get Literature, where we discuss The Man Who Folded Himself by David Gerrold. This classic time travel story by the man responsible for the classic Star Trek episode "The Trouble with Tribbles" will take you not only to places only few have seen but many have told of, but also to places you wouldn't even dare to imagine!!
Book Backflap: "This classic work of science fiction is widely considered to be the ultimate time-travel novel. When Daniel Eakins inherits a time machine, he soon realizes that he has enormous power to shape the course of history. He can foil terrorists, prevent assassinations, or just make some fast money at the racetrack. And if he doesn't like the results of the change, he can simply go back in time and talk himself out of making it! But Dan soon finds that there are limits to his powers and forces beyond his control."

The Name of the Rose
Libraries, monks, labyrinths, murder, and chick peas! In this episode, we discuss Umberto Eco's epic medieval mystery along with its 1986 film adaptation featuring Sean Connery and Christian Slater, and 2019 limited series adaptation featuring John Turturro. If that doesn't wet your palette, then this will:
The year is 1327. Benedictines in a wealthy Italian abbey are suspected of heresy, and Brother William of Baskerville arrives to investigate. When his delicate mission is suddenly overshadowed by seven bizarre deaths, Brother William turns detective. His tools are the logic of Aristotle, the theology of Aquinas, the empirical insights of Roger Bacon—all sharpened to a glistening edge by wry humor and a ferocious curiosity. He collects evidence, deciphers secret symbols and coded manuscripts, and digs into the eerie labyrinth of the abbey, where “the most interesting things happen at night.”
