00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,400
This is MJ. I'm an author, I'm an artist, I'm an analyzer. You can find all my work

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:11,160
at mjmunoz.com. I have decided to cancel the fun facts, at least for this episode,

3
00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:16,000
because I tried really, well I didn't try really hard. I made a few attempts to get

4
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,040
fun facts assembled for me, and it didn't work out the way I wanted it to, and I'm very

5
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:25,440
disappointed in the fun facts I got. I don't rely, or I don't trust them. I don't believe

6
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:31,480
they're all correct, the data I was given by my AI assistants, and I therefore don't

7
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:35,600
really want to put it out there. I'm not going to retract stuff from episode, or from book

8
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:41,080
five, or verify that it was true or not, but just, maybe this wasn't a good idea. And if

9
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:46,200
it was, if I was going to do this, maybe it wasn't a good idea to hand it off to an AI,

10
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,640
and I should have done it a different way. So I'm not going to do that. Instead I'm going

11
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:55,920
to take the time to tell you that part of this, and I'll get into the casual book chat

12
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:03,680
on Half Blood Prince very soon, okay? But part of this rush, the way I'm releasing this right

13
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:11,680
now, is because I've decided to take on and read a bunch of middle grade fiction. Over

14
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:16,120
three dozen, let's just say, or the goal is minimum three dozen over the course of the

15
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:21,080
remainder of 2024. And I decided that since I had all these Harry Potter recordings saved

16
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:28,760
from last year, that I would just go ahead and rapid release them so that I can share

17
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,280
them with you. And since they were in such a different mindset, I thought I'll get them

18
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,840
out of the way, I'll get them done real quick, and hopefully the lessons I learned producing

19
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:42,200
these this week will get me in a better place where I'm going to make the series to come

20
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,040
that will be released on the story of everything feed really good. And me going through all

21
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,840
these middle grade books and talking about them, giving my overall impressions and thoughts

22
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:56,040
about things that grabbed my attention specifically will be really satisfying and really useful

23
00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:02,200
to me, to you, to anybody who checks out the reviews or suggestions or not suggestions

24
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:09,240
and anti suggestions that I make regarding books. So anyway, I would really appreciate

25
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:15,560
people check who checked out these Harry Potter talks, checking out these other book talks

26
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,360
because well, I mean, Harry Potter is made for young folk. And so are all these other

27
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,720
books I'm going to be talking about. And there are a lot of them while they're all like big

28
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:33,200
books in the genre. And that's true for a reason. And hopefully, there's enough merit

29
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,280
in them that I'll have people reading and following along with those are learning about

30
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,800
and, you know, new books to check out from the list that I go through. So anyway, without

31
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:46,280
further ado, I will get I will pass it off to pass me to talk about Harry Potter and

32
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,680
the Half Blood Prince, which was a very enjoyable book. I'll say that right now. And I'll let

33
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:57,760
pass me say the rest. So I hope you found all that information interesting. This is

34
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:07,720
a way a Half Blood Prince was an interesting book. It probably I don't know. It was really

35
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:12,240
interesting. It was really good. I listened to it at an increased speed versus the others

36
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:17,720
as I've gone in the series, I've listened to longer, I've listened to it at faster and

37
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:24,040
faster speed. And this one I went really fast. So I still comprehended everything. I think

38
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:30,480
I actually comprehended it better than I did Order of the Phoenix. And I'm back to the

39
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:36,800
Jim Dale version of the audiobook I'm getting from the library. So that's nice. And it was

40
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:43,120
a really good book. It was really interesting. It almost felt odd in some ways like the threat

41
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:51,600
and the danger were so much lurking in the background that they didn't seem to be real.

42
00:03:51,600 --> 00:04:07,680
Let me see. How do I put this? Oh, yeah, this one has all the crazy. I'm pretty sure it

43
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:16,880
is this one. I think it's this one. I think this one has the crazy inappropriate relationship

44
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:22,160
stuff, which is like really weird and uncomfortable. I don't know. Maybe that was I can't remember

45
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,560
which one it was now. But all that stuff is really weird. But I won't, you know, I won't

46
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:35,400
go on about that. I'll just say that I really like this different approach that this book

47
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:42,920
took to everything. We got a wider view of the Wizarding World again. We learn a lot

48
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:48,800
about Voldemort, which is super interesting. We get to see Harry actually has a personal

49
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:56,760
relationship with Dumbledore. Dumbledore Dumbledore here in this book that is really interesting.

50
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:02,960
And I'm not going to say it's satisfying right away because Harry argues with Dumbledore

51
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,400
and he disagrees with him. And while he trusts and respects him, and he even calls himself

52
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:13,520
Dumbledore's man, that I don't know, it's just there's a really interesting dichotomy

53
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:21,840
or tension in their relationship because there is so much affection and admiration and care

54
00:05:21,840 --> 00:05:29,520
for each other. But there's also like Dumbledore is an old man. He's not only a wizard, but

55
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:36,040
he's a wizened man. He knows more about the world and about life than Harry does and can

56
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:42,040
even comprehend being that Harry's only 16 at this point. And that's just a fact. If

57
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:49,960
you want to get mad at that, it proves that you're immature. But anyway, excuse me. Dumbledore

58
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,880
is far wiser than me too. Well, maybe not because he's a fictional character, but if

59
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:58,560
you're a real person, definitely he'd be more, you know, a lot wiser than me. I'm more than

60
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:05,580
double Harry's age at this point. So I don't know. It's really interesting how Dumbledore

61
00:06:05,580 --> 00:06:14,320
has this like merciful aspect to his character and he's operating out of a place of, I don't

62
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:20,360
know, like genuine concern and care for this large group of students, some of whom he has,

63
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:26,800
you know, very personal connections to or who he, you know, dotes on personally. It's

64
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,680
not that he loves all children all over the world. It's that he, you know, especially

65
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:37,320
cares for and means to care for and help out the students who go to Hogwarts as best as

66
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:42,600
he can. And he is kind of like devoted his life to that. And gosh, I don't know if it's

67
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:49,720
really interesting how Dumbledore and Harry together explore the past through using the

68
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:56,520
pensive and they explore so many memories in and around Voldemort or Tom Riddle, as

69
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:05,400
I prefer to call him. It's a, like, first of all, it's a fascinating way that Rowling

70
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:12,400
has created for herself to delve into the past, to do extended flashbacks or, you know,

71
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:18,880
not extended as the case is sometimes, but to do these flashbacks where the action and

72
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,940
therefore the tension in the drama and the urgency is there both for the characters who

73
00:07:22,940 --> 00:07:26,880
are in the past and for our characters who are with them here in Dumbledore mostly seeing

74
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:32,640
the past unfold before their eyes. You know, it's their present, even though it's someone

75
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:38,960
else's past. It's just like a really interesting, really clever way that she created for herself

76
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:46,800
to look into the past. And I, I'm curious how much planning she did for this because

77
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:51,680
it seems there are certain strokes and certain moves in this book that reflect on the rest

78
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:56,480
of the series that make her feel like a genius or make the writing behind this feel like

79
00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:06,320
it was done by genius. And it's really impressive because you end up having sympathy for characters

80
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:14,480
that you have hated in the past. You end up being surprised by, I don't think you get

81
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:21,160
surprised by everybody in this book, but there are a lot of surprises and the maneuvering

82
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:27,200
and the developing and the maturation. And although I use that word lightly or loosely

83
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:35,240
of different characters and the way that they interact in the world is really interesting.

84
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:40,960
You know, the question, not the question of evil, but more, you know, who is evil is something

85
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:54,760
that's kind of explored in this book and it raises, it raises moral questions and it raises,

86
00:08:54,760 --> 00:09:05,080
gosh, these dramatic, I don't know. It like, everything is elevated basically, like things

87
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:09,640
that appeared in book one, book two, book three, book four, book five even are all like

88
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:19,000
being pulled upon and manipulated and characters who had incidental, who we've seen, you know,

89
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,980
passed by incidentally or who had, you know, their role started in other books and then

90
00:09:23,980 --> 00:09:27,880
maybe it was diminished and now they've kind of come back into the four. They have all

91
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:33,040
these interesting things happening to them and it's done in a very realistic type way

92
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:37,080
where things that happen in this book are all things that have been previously established

93
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:41,400
or built upon through the course of other books and it's not all of a sudden somebody

94
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:47,040
has, you know, this item and this bit of knowledge and this desire to do these things and they

95
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:54,880
got all three of those in this book. It's this person was given a motivation to do something,

96
00:09:54,880 --> 00:10:00,080
a motivation to move towards a goal and you would think it's exactly the kind of thing

97
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,040
that they would want to do, but it turns out in reality, it's not something that they want

98
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,720
to do and it's something that they're being forced into and the things that they need

99
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:14,440
to accomplish their task. One of them is from long ago and another one is a fairly recent

100
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:21,600
development and it's just really interesting how that all works together and like I can't

101
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,360
imagine that Rowling thought, oh, for this character who I want to have this thing happen,

102
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:31,000
I'm going to have them get their motivation towards a goal in book six, but I'm going

103
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:38,440
to have them get the means for it. One important thing in book six, but another important thing

104
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:43,600
in book one or two or whatever it was. I think it was book two, but I'm not sure. And I'm

105
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,800
going to give that information out to the reader and to the characters and then they're

106
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,840
going to be able to piece together how all this happened, you know, six years later in

107
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,960
books or, you know, however many years, a couple of years later in book six. Like I

108
00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:01,960
don't think that's how it was done. But I don't know how it was done. There's a, there's

109
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:07,840
a certain magic to the, the interconnected, inter layered, inter woven storytelling that's

110
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:14,360
going on here. And it's a, it's very interesting and none of it's been obvious. This character

111
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:21,520
I'm thinking of in particular, who I, who has been loathed in the books, but I think

112
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:27,680
now there's sympathy from many parties on this character. I didn't see that coming.

113
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:31,480
I didn't see that coming at all. And I don't think, you know, the characters could have

114
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,640
either and it's very surprising. So gosh, what else, what else? I mean, there's a lot

115
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:41,280
in this book and I'm again, I'm having a casual book chat, but I'm just, I don't know. I,

116
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,120
I'm less wanting to analyze the book and more just say like how impressed I am with how

117
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:51,640
good this book is and how, you know, and I've said this about writing the previous, a couple

118
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,720
of the previous books. It elevates all the books that have come before it. And it really

119
00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:00,840
like uses all the little breadcrumbs and threads and things like that in those other books

120
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:07,600
as assets to make itself better. And then it like reinforces the goodness or the quality

121
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,840
of those other books. And I don't know, it's really interesting because like Rowling seems

122
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:17,880
to be, and I think I said this in the previous casual book chat, like she seems to be working

123
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:24,920
a mystery. Like there's a mystery at the center of each book. It's, there's an, each book

124
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:31,600
has its own individual mystery at its center. However, she also had this interesting thing

125
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:37,840
where we learn in this book, basically that most of those mysteries have all been linked

126
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:43,240
to each other and pointed to each other and they're all leading towards this end. So there

127
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,840
was nothing fruitless about them. They were all part of the overall story, part of the

128
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:56,680
overall plot. And that's really interesting. It's really neat. It's a, it's a neat trick

129
00:12:56,680 --> 00:13:02,640
that she accomplished in, well, however she accomplished it, you know, in the, in the

130
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:08,440
writing of this series. And I don't know, it was very interesting. By the end, there's

131
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:18,320
a very dramatic turn. It was a very dramatic twist and I don't quite, I don't want to talk

132
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:31,400
about it right now. And its effect on the series is really interesting. And I hope,

133
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:44,680
I hope it stays as meaningful after reading book seven as it is in book six. And I think

134
00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:50,680
I was kind of, I was set up for it without knowing that I was being set up for it. And

135
00:13:50,680 --> 00:13:58,680
then the trap got sprung effectively and well, it was very effective because I was really

136
00:13:58,680 --> 00:14:03,520
shocked and taken for a loop by this big turn. Although I was given spoilers about something

137
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:10,640
that happens in book seven. And I'm shocked. I don't know how that's going to happen based

138
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:16,800
on what happened in book six. And it's very fascinating. Also, I guessed it with the title,

139
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:22,560
the half blood prince meant three different times and I was wrong three different times,

140
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:30,680
but I was right. One of them and or maybe I had two guesses. I think I had two guesses,

141
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:37,560
but the book itself offered like three clean options for who the half blood prince could

142
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:43,840
be and how that works out. And it's very interesting. And I don't know, it was just, it was a really

143
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:50,960
fun book. It was really entertaining all the way through. I can't show me this thing that

144
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:56,200
it's a, it's one of the best lines in the book. At some point, Snape and Harry are talking.

145
00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:04,160
I mean, professors and they're in Snape's class and Harry forgets to call Snape sir.

146
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:16,760
And he, and Snape tells him something like, like, yes, sir. And he says, professor, there's

147
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:23,400
no need for you to call me sir. I think the line is the dialogue tag is, you know, Harry

148
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:28,040
said the words, you know, the words came out of Harry's mouth before he realized or could

149
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:34,320
stop himself. And then he gives this absolute zinger, like this mad dig on Snape. And it

150
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,600
was fabulous. It was absolutely fabulous. It was hilarious. And like it was one of those

151
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:43,760
moments where you like pause reading and you're taken out of the book because a line was so

152
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:52,560
good or so stunning that you have to react to it. And, and I was warned that that line

153
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:58,040
was coming too. Again, by the same spoiler who told me about this thing at the end. And

154
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:04,160
I was absolutely shocked how hard the line hit in the book listening to it, even though

155
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,400
I was, it was shown to be, but maybe that just shows how good of a performance Chimdale

156
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:14,480
did because it was really good. So yeah, there's lots of interesting stuff in this book. There's

157
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:18,240
more relationship stuff. One of the Weasley brothers is getting married, which is a lot

158
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:23,360
of fun. And there's like adults getting married. It's like, there's all sorts of romantic stuff

159
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,160
in this book. I think this is the book that has it all. I think I was just complaining

160
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,960
to my kid about this the other day. They're like, it's really weird that in the sixth

161
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:33,200
book, all of a sudden Rowling is hitting you with like all this romantic subplot stuff.

162
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:39,240
And it's like, it's not small. It's not Cho Chang kissing Harry under the mistletoe once.

163
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,560
It's like, yeah, it's really weird. And I don't want to belabor it and talk about it

164
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:50,440
because it's just, it's, it's odd, very odd. But anyway, that there's like one chapter

165
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,920
really that's like horrible. It filled with all this weird teen romance stuff. It was

166
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:59,880
like bizarre. Not that you can't have teen romance, but I just, you know, I wasn't expecting

167
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:05,160
it. And yeah, there's death and destruction and mutilation and all sorts of things, you

168
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,840
know, going on in the book that are horrible that I, you know, that are, you know, like

169
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:17,760
a big deal and you'd want to, you know, stay away from those things if possible. But there

170
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:24,800
is to me, there's an image between like violence and like, and sexuality, basically. I just,

171
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:29,160
I have to say there's, there's no other way to put it. And like putting kids in scenes

172
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:33,880
where they're dealing with violence is acceptable to me because it's a very real world thing.

173
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,240
It's obviously morally wrong and you don't want them to be in danger and you want them

174
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:43,040
to be protected from that. However, because people like to make the argument, oh, all

175
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:48,160
the violence on American TV, for example, is horrible. Or, you know, it's horrible,

176
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:54,080
but you celebrate it because you like whatever it is, Power Rangers, Terminator, any, you

177
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:58,280
know, Call of Duty, any war thing. You're fine with bloodshed, but you're not okay with

178
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:04,320
sexuality. Well, yeah, sexuality, violence harms children when they're actually, uh,

179
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,840
aggressed upon, when they're actually hurt by, you know, literally physically, uh, violence

180
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:14,280
harms children in that case. Violence harms children or sexuality harms children when

181
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:19,440
they are exposed to it in a number of ways. One, like being abused by a teacher or a trusted

182
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:24,720
guardian or a random stranger, God forbid, any of those situations. Uh, however, I can

183
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:54,640
personally attest, again, I'm not, I'm not a child. I'm an adult with children myself. I can personally attest to being exposed to sexuality as a youth and having it cause me lots of problems. And I can know, I know of other people, I can get, you know, I wouldn't do this, I wouldn't betray their trust, but I can tell you names of people and incidents of things that happen that where they were exposed to sexuality at a very young age and it's had lifelong build a serious effects on them. Not that it has to for everybody. Some people can be damaged by it. Some people can, you know, there's lots of different reactions and consequences to different sorts of circumstances.

184
00:18:54,640 --> 00:19:24,240
Situations, however, children being exposed to, you know, visual violence or violent scenarios in a book or whatever, um, it's seen as an immoral thing. It's seen as a scary thing. It's seen as dangerous. It's seen as exciting. And it's something that you're glad that the character survives through and escapes from, escapes harm from, but it's seen as something to escape, to avoid, to not be harmed by versus, uh, sexuality, especially the way it's covered in this book with the, you know, all the weird, you know, weird, you know,

185
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:53,440
young teens like kissing and making out and things like that. That's odd. That's not seen as harmful in the book. Um, and I don't think the intended audience has the maturity to see that overexposure as harmful to them is still the terrorist to them. And yet I firmly believe that it can be that it most likely is. And I think those who aren't harmed by it are the exception, not the rule. And so it's kind of weird.

186
00:19:54,640 --> 00:20:24,640
I definitely did not expect to see that in here. And I think it's too bad that it's here. I think it can be overlooked, but I don't know. Maybe, maybe I'm part of the problem then if I'm going to overlook it. But yeah, I don't think Rowling's a horrible monster. Like some people think she is, but you could argue that those people are in favor of exposing children to the kinds of things that I object to her putting in this book. But they're just coming kind of from a different perspective, a different perspective.

187
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:54,640
A different side of it that they do like and think it's wonderful that I would disagree with them on. So anyway, that's kind of weird. But yeah, this is, uh, this is me. These are my honest opinions on the book. Um, all that being said, I feel like it was mostly contained to a small ish section of the book and definitely a chapter, but Rowling's chapters are long and it eeked out into a couple other chapters here and there. Um, and it was kind of set up in the last book, some stuff, especially with, uh, with Ginny. Um, but it was not explicit there. Uh, and I took it as rumor and kids being, uh,

188
00:20:54,640 --> 00:21:24,640
mean or unkind or ungenerous to each other. And then this book said, no, this is, that's definitely what's happening. And, uh, like there was no issue with it according to the book or from by the book standards. And, uh, well, you know, I guess Rowling and I have different, uh, moral sensibilities, moral principles that we live by. And, uh, we happen to disagree or differ on this, uh, on this point. So anyway, again, I find that all very interesting. It's interesting tangent and interesting thing to talk about, but it's not the most important thing.

189
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:47,720
Uh, in the book, I think the most important thing in the book is, uh, all the really interesting stuff that happened, all the compelling storytelling that was going on. And I want to focus on that. So I, I did, I did. It's a really good book and I'm super excited to start the next book. In fact, I'm going to be starting it basically right after I finished this recording. So, uh, yeah.

190
00:21:47,720 --> 00:22:00,720
Look forward to the next casual book chat on, uh, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. And, uh, let me know what you think of these books. I'm really curious to hear people's feedback and how much they like it or dislike it.

191
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:10,720
Anything that you think are, you know, wrong or weird or bad or objectionable or anything like that. I'm also curious to hear just, uh, you know, so we can talk about the book, have fun with the book chatting.

192
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:17,720
All right. So that's enough of me meandering on. Uh, I hope you folks are well until next time. This is MJ signing out.

193
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:42,720
And a story over everything production.
