Sometimes I start off SPECTACLE OF DISSENT, and my guest and I just start riffing it up right from the jump like we’re old pals. Personally, I love it. What’s not to love? It’s all copacetic except that sinking feeling after the call ends of every other little snipe hunt of a topic we didn’t touch on. Which is exactly how I felt after I finished recording this episode with the stand-up comic turned family man novelist (and I must add, dog and pony show member),
.I truly mean it when I say that Centaur is one of the funniest people on this entire site. His satire has a concentrated bite to it that always leaves me hungry for the next piece. So, I’m beyond hype for an entire novel of it in Centuar’s Pandemonia: A Novel Plague Plague Novel:
If you are reading this, you’re now obligated to buy the book. If you ever wore a mask in public you’re obligated to buy two copies. Shoooooot, and if you got that sticky icky… that jabberjockey… that icy dicy… the MRNA especial? Go ahead and buy a half dozen for every jab. I don’t make the rules. King Rex and Dr. Ant Sickle do.
Centaur lampoons covidmania with masterful wit. So much so, that he could easily wave this whole venture off as a tongue-in-cheek take down of magatards writ large if he wanted to.
Yet again, I’m going to slough off doing full show notes bc I’d rather just get this out to you.
