    E7 The Book with No Pictures
    Jun 30 2025

    This week, Mike and David discuss... nothing. We speak of many things, "The Book with No Pictures," which is much like the beginning of life, a blank canvas. We discuss ideas for sequels, and the deep existentialist meaning of the artistically artsy artistry within the annals of it's history. David drops names, Mike sweeps them up, and in the end just, "Move along, nothing to see, hear."

All in all, a ribbiting good time!
