In our second episode, we look at Chapters 4-6 of Gideon the Ninth, in which Gideon reluctantly agrees to take on the role of Cavalier Primary of the Ninth House and finally gets to leave that damn hole in the ground. Baily quizzes Kabriya on some fun new words we learned from Tamsyn, and then we get into the CATHOLICISM of it all. It sure seems like there are some parallels going on here and who better than an ex-Catholic and a non-Catholic to figure it all out? And then of course, it’s time for a new Bone of Week.
* SPOILER ALERT * We reference events from GTN and HTN in this podcast, as it’s intended for readers who’ve already finished both books.
