S2E6: Modelland by Tyra Banks

The gentlemen grab their graduation gowns after completing Tyra Banks' Modelland, an ambitious and horrifying vanity project from the supermodel, media mogul and America's Next Top Model host.  This episode explores Tyra's ill-fated attempt to create Harry Potter for models - or maybe Hunger Games for models, or maybe House of 1000 Corpses for models - it's not totally clear.   Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2555803/fan_mail/new]

S2E5 The Hardy Boys: Footprints Under the Window by Franklin W. Dixon

Gather 'round, gumshoes. The boys are on the beat this week cracking the case of 1933's Footprints Under the Window, a remarkably racist entry in early Hardy Boys canon centered on anti-Chinese xenophobia. Beyond the text, our detectives dig into the sleazy world of the Stratemeyer Syndicate (also known for Nancy Drew) and their immense impact on American YA fiction and the book world at large.

S2E4: Chariots of the Gods by Erich von Däniken

The book club don their sun hats and carefully excavate a pseudoscience classic, Erich von Däniken's 1968 Chariots of the Gods.  Brushing off this dusty tome, they dig deep into a convicted fraudster with seventy million copies sold, alien eugenics and Nazi ghostwriters, and the origins of an enduring theory that every great ancient civilization was built by aliens.
