Follow The Naughty Librarian for weekly discussions with authors telling their stories and the stories they tell. Inspired by true events at a Southern California high school.Instead of making it a Blockbuster night, dive into a nostalgic archive seen through CRT TV screens, AOL Instant Messenger pings, burned CDs, and the frosted tips generation. It's 2002 in the world of The Beta Boys, and 16-year-old Roman Vallancourt has the audacious dream to become the next tech icon. He hatches a computer hacking heist that could make him a digital legend—or destroy everything important to him. He recruits his two Armenian best friends as co-conspirators: Tadeh Tovmasian, a cocky and relentless overachiever, and Alex Ter Alaverdian, a gaming savant who's more comfortable handling controllers than conversations with girls. Told through all three perspectives, The Beta Boys is more than a heist story: it’s an archival love letter to an analog-to-digital generation—navigating brutal social hierarchies, the awkward spark of first crushes, and the unfiltered weirdness of high school before social media. Three friends, one cyber heist. Will their bond survive the code? Will you survive the summer without binging on this episode & all other episodes of the global hit podcast ⁠The Naughty Librarian⁠ [https://thenaughtylibrarian.ca/]?
