WATCH OUT, WOOOOOOORMS!

That's right, the Smug Book Club boys are back and talking about one of their all time favourite novels: 'Dune,' by Frank Herbert.

In this bumper-length episode (that just means we talked a whole load of nonsense for ages), we cover a veritable smorgasbord of topics. This includes:

  • Our experience with Dune
  • FRANK HERBERT FACTS
  • What happened in 1964 (well, two things)
  • How the story holds up today
  • Whether Dune's gender politics are out of date
  • Working out which character is the ABSOLUTE BOY
  • Considering the environmental, ecological, and religious themes of the novel
  • Dune cover art
  • The movie adaptions

And that's just the summary of what we spoke. Lord, you are going to LOVE IT.

Anyway, buckle up on a Maker, snort some spice, and let's hit up Arrakis together.
