💖WOW💖 I’m SO glad you guys are finally doing my favorite story in the whole world, the story I did my college graduation thesis on, Journey to the West❣️👍🏾 I KNOW James must’ve had a ball (hands over head!) working on this totally relevant to today tale. During this time of negative imagery for China due to COVID-19, what a way to remember the awesomeness of the Chinese people and their arts that will always be greater than any temporary turbulence.

That's awesome that you did your thesis on this story! Jac was the writer for this script and they had a great time! We're really excited for part two.

Hey Matt. I’m listening to the Stormlight Archive right now. I’m on book 3, Oathbringer.

Would the Buddha be a good topic for Extra Mythology to cover or do you think he more falls into Extra History? There are not many Religious topics on EH at the moment apart from the Early Christian Schisms, which was pretty fascinating, and Justinian Part II I suppose.

Thank you, Narrator Guy, but I am actually "on the short bus" for a variety of reasons, all from the neck up. I listen to podcasts at work, and while driving, but only because I'd be too bored otherwise. Because I'm "special," I struggle to retain the spoken word. So audio books wouldn't work for me. I do recommend Audible to my dyslexic friends.
