Episode 190: Mr. Too Damn In Trouble


The Da Vinci Code... part one! That's right--we called an audible mid-episode this week because there's just too much to fit into even a big two-and-a-half-hour episode! In a fitting development for discussing a novel all about dualism, we're devoting an episode each to the two halves of the story: The airport thriller novel this episode, and the spurious alternate religious history on the next.  On this installment, we talk about ???????????????????????? and ℂ????????????????????????????????????, as well as our histories with the book and Dan Brown's Langdon series. We've got a lot to cover--from Eyes Wide Shut rituals to anagrams, and everything in between. We try to solve the mystery of what, exactly, this book is trying to say about religion... or if it's even trying to say anything at all; we also try to puzzle out what exactly Aringarosa's plan was and what Teabing's plan was!  Next week we'll be discussing ????????????????????--namely, everything the book claims is a fact and how utterly wrong it gets pretty much everything it claims is true: art analysis, portrayal of various cultures and religions, geography, and even basic history. If you think we missed something big or important about the lore this week, it's probably comin' up in part 2! We'll also have a top secret fun activity that I can't wait to record... (Note: the audio is a little crunchy this week. My apologies!)
