S2 Ep 34: First day of School, Project Hail Mary, Trapped, Planes,Trains and Automobiles, Dave switches carriers, Del cleans up his act

Published: Aug. 27, 2021, 6 p.m.

It's the first day of school for Grayson and he's not happy about it...or is he? Who doesn't like brain breaks?

Dave gives a book report on Project Hail Mary by And Weir.\xa0 Five stars for geeky science projects, fewer for a sloppy backstory and some character superficiality. Dave gives it 3.5 stars but Goodreads gives it 4.55. Who's right? Read it and\xa0 decide.

Dave reviews Trapped, a 2-season\xa0 Icelandic miniseries on Prime that deals with murder, intrigue, and family secrets in a small town on the north coast of Iceland. Great character actors, lots of twists and turns. 4.5 stars. Del recommends to our Icelandic that they watch it. Dave feels they have all probably seen it already but doesn't mention this, Del being so delicate and all.

Del goes on a rant about airline ticket pricing as the Bucks expose a devious algorithm. In a frenzy, Del rants further on auto insurance costs. Maybe he's just a bad driver? Dave means ip address when he says url.

Dave switches mobile carriers and, unexpectedly,\xa0 hardly rants at all. Send a note to buckstwoold@gmail.com and he'll tell you his new carrier.

Del agonizes over what to do with the bars of soap when they get too small. Clearly a man with too much time on his hands.\xa0

Finally, Del thinks he has another BIG IDEA - cardboard furniture- only to learn it is already out there.\xa0

Whew! Lots of stuff today. What do you think? \xa0 \xa0 \xa0BUCKSTWOOLD@GMAIL.COM
