Extra Nate: The Illusion of Gaia

The Illusion of Gaia plan I’ve been thinking for a while about doing small videos on the side and writing on the side as well. I’ve hinted that I’m thinking about some sort of small episodic writing in the future. I think one thing that could help keep my writing chops… limber? Is that the word? One thing that can...

Extra Nate: Bobiverse

This week (or whenever I post this, I don’t know and neither do you) we finish up the second book in the Bobiverse. A book series that’s both cringe and fascinating to me at the same time. It’s a weird combinatino of fun sci-fi ideas that I wish we got to do in Spore (and real life) and pop culture...

Extra Nate: Death on Gokumon Island

We’re back with Extra Nate! I’m attempting to clean up my quarter 1 obligations. I’m giving myself little rewards for finishing out each quarter and for anything I miss, I’m going to run a mile. I’m currently dying of allergies with the sudden shift from winter, to spring, then summer, then back to spring, and (if the weather report is...

Extra Nate: The Bread Mage

Ben if you’re reading this, and you’re not, you’re welcome to make superficial edits to this post. Like changing “Bread Mage” to the actual name of the book and “Evil Inquisitor” to whatever that guy’s job title actually was. I can’t be bothered to go back and look, re-reading books isn’t in my contract. I’ve been struggling to decide what...

Extra Nate: Sonic Canon is a Mess

Today we released a discussion of Sonic The Hedgehog, the comic, but not the comic you’re probably thinking of. There was a brief discussion of Sonic Canon, because Sonic Canon is a mess. It’s terrible. You can’t convince me otherwise. Now I’m going to talk like I’m an authority on this topic because I know you’re either already a Sonic...

Extra Nate: Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Introduction And we’re baaaaaaaaack! It’s Extra Nate! The BEST and only blog to a podcast about books starring a guy named Nate. Season 6 of Words About Books! How crazy is that? We’ve been doing this for one global pandemic, two major US-adjacent wars, and three presidental terms and we’re still going strong! For this season of Extra Nate I...

Ben’s 2024 Year in Books

The overwhelming majority of the books I read in 2024 were covered on Words About Books. There were several books and novel-length manga I read that I did not make podcast content on. I thought it might be fun to go over them here. If the presence of so much manga surprises you, then you might not know that I...

Dune Post Mortem: Zen and the Art of Thinking Machines

As of this month, Words About Books has officially covered all of the Dune books written by Frank Herbert. It’s a strange feeling. Words About Books can often be a sarcasm-filled mess of rants, interruptions, and audio memes. In addition to its being a difficult environment for emotional honesty, it can be difficult to say exactly what you mean, in...

Extra Nate: Bioshock

Here I am with a non-book for some reason. Probably because Ben gave me access to this blog and he never checks it so I can slip in a video game. I guess there are books for this series and I will never read them. So this is the best you’re going to get. I just finished the first game...

Extra Nate: The Mystery of the Yellow Room Review

It’s Extra Nate! Prepare for spoilers! Okay I’ll keep this one short. The Mystery of the Yellow Room… not good. Not a fan. Not great. Sorry Dame Agatha Christie but I have to disagree with you on this one. This is absolutely cheating. It’s kind of BS. The Mystery of the Yellow Room is a locked room mystery. Locked room...
