Episode four of The Books of Thoth is here. Learn how to have the best day ever. Even when you live in a totalitarian dystopia.

Episode four of The Books of Thoth has finally arrived. For those of you just joining the fun, The Books of Thoth is an audio drama anthology. You’ll hear stories of the past, the future, and alternate worlds.

“It Was The Best Day Ever” follows Citizen 123192-A. He lives in a grim totalitarian dystopian society known as The PostState. A boot in the face forever. But he doesn’t let it get him down. In fact, he’s about to tell us about how much he loves life in The PostState. He’ll burn books, rat out his fellow Citizens to the authorities, and maybe even eat a ration bar or two. It’s sure to be the best day ever!

I would like to take a moment to thank my cast for helping make this episode possible. Thank you to Jay Callan, Cameron Gergett, Melissa Bowens, Tiffany Perdue, Julie Hoverson, Ed Haynes, James Barnett, and Karim Kronfli.

I include several references to classic dystopian fiction in this episode. See how many that you can spot. This episode was my longest to date. Almost twice as long as my previous episodes. I certainly hope it was worth the wait.

The Books of Thoth is hosted on RedCircle: https://redcircle.com/shows/6701d0b5-6b14-4b76-992d-02f391b5cf42

late night (early morning?) thought but my god I love the foreshadowing/lampshading in Not For Broadcast's script. like it's one of those things where you're not really going to see it coming at first but if you've already seen the entire plot and are rewatching it, they clearly point between it and the player like "eh? eeeeehh???".

example in that The Heatwave's final segment looks like it came out of almost nowhere on a blind playthrough unless you're paying attention to the other screens and reading the subtitles, but looking back at the other screens in Rushes afterwards (and also for previous days' other screens/Rushes, see The Election and The Silence), you can just see all the writing on the Advance-funded walls of the newsroom. the main plot of Advance vs Disrupt is good, but the National Nightly News and its casters is what really drives the story forward.

Remember when Tumblr had groupchats? Whatever happened to that?

Anyway, I'm an aspiring author who mostly writes for fun. I have a couple works I'd love to publish someday (though not anytime soon), and I'm reaching out to see if there's anyone who'd ever want to workshop. Probably more on the casual side, just to bounce ideas off of each other and have someone read through our stuff. DM me if you're interested!

Oh, apparently I haven’t finished. I think Buster would’ve loved this movie. It’s full of Heath Robinson/Rube Goldberg machines. A man falls in love at first sight then sets about trying to prove himself to win the love of said woman. Bureaucracy is fought against. Buster said that at MGM you had to fill out a form in triplicate in order to get a pencil or words to that effect. It has a remarkably bleak ending that Gilliam had to fight for. Buster knew all about fighting against the studio system. It’s full of dreams. And lastly, it’s just a f***ing masterpiece.

Ngl I think the young adult genre actually is what got me to stop reading as a kid like as soon as I hit 6th grade I was like why is this all fucking garbage
