In this episode Carlos and Lenny share their thoughts on Cormac McCarthy's 1985 Western novel "Blood Meridian or The Evening Redness in the West":
"Based on historical events that took place on the Texas-Mexico border in the 1850s, Blood Meridian is an epic novel that traces the fortunes of the Kid, a fourteen-year-old Tennesseean who stumbles into a nightmarish world in which the market for Indian scalps is thriving."
