(discord: https://discord.gg/bEmxEGh5PD)

We delve into the origins of magic in the Dresdenverse and get REALLY excited about a man talking about circles!

We also get a VERY thorough description of every woman in Chicago, and also meet some dudes! The male gaze appears early and often, and we try to weigh and navigate it's significance to noir storytelling.

Easy and fun to listen to

If you love the Dresden Files and want more content while waiting for the next book, these two give an interesting insight to the series, especially coming from Alyssa's perspective as someone in the homicide field and also fairly new to the series with her initial reaction and opinions to the story. Then you have John who is caught up with the Dresden Files with a more in depth perspective of the series overall. There's also the dynamic between a man's and a woman's perspective as a reader. I have trouble finding other fans of this book series to talk to about their opinions on the series, so it's refreshing to find a podcast like their's. I'm looking forward to listening al the way through until they catch up with the rest of the series!

Give Harry a break!

You are really bashing Harry for his perceptions of women, . . but consider that he was raised by Justin deMornay (sp?) and his first love was the girl who was basically raised as his sister! And then he was with his grandfather and then mostly on his own and very isolated. How could he have developed a more enlightened view under those circumstances?
