    Original Australian Apocalypse - On The Beach (1957) Part 1

    Melbourne, Australia: nuclear winter approaches as the equatorial winds shift each year. You have twelve months left on the outside, more likely eight, and six on the inside. What will you do with the time you have left? This week we discuss the introductory section of Neil Shute's confronting apocalypse novel set in Patrick and David's backyard.

    It's a weapon! - The Book of Eli (2009)

    The book itself you recall - the sentiment, the heft of it. And if you really concentrate, you can remember some of the words, but never complete sections. You wonder idly if there's a copy left in the wold now that it has emptied. You imagine probably in the basement of a church or tucked into the pocket behind a seat in an abandoned car.

    We only read this book once - The Road (2006) Part 3

    Apocalypse and endings. Literature. Meaning. It all blows away on the sands of a dead shore. A counterspectacle of what was, alighting some part of how it came to be, yes, and some part of what it could have been. We are ruinous creatures, aren't we? This week: the end of Cormac McCarthy's legendary novel The Road and it's bleak. Shocker.

    Old Men and Petty Gods - The Road (2006) Part 2

    Rain spoils against your back. You can feel the damp on your neck and inside your rotting shoes. The ropes binding your pack chafe, and you wonder, idly, if you were always meant for this. You think perhaps you were. That in some other heaven where things did not go wrong that you were the omen that brought everything down. Freezing to death. A reprieve in a mysterious bunker.

    The “Perfect” Modern Novel - The Road (2006) Part 1

    Fall literature spoils on the bloated wooden boards. You recognise the shape of names--fiction you once knew and loved--now reduced to damp, cloggy promises that threaten your balance. The world has emptied out, yet these recollections stick to the sky, unbidden. This week the gang cracks into Cormac McCarthy's seminal classic, The Road (2006) and try to unpick the behemoth that is the novel.

    HOW DARE YOU - Silent Night (2021)

    You iron the shirt one more time, just in case. Your partner watches you from the corner of their eye, pretending to be distracted by the news. You've had it on for a week straight now, muted with the subtitles on. Barely able to leave the couch save for the essentials. You keep waiting for the moment it turns out to be a mistake. Of course it's a mistake. And then very suddenly it's the *the* night, and not until you sit in the car with the cardboard containing your pill in the breast pocket of your jacket that it becomes real. The gang see out the year with the only Christmas Apocalypse film David could find, Silent Night, a blistering black comedy.

    No Star Burns Forever - Sea of Tranquility (2022) Part 2

    The steady trickle of the river reminds you of home, but as you blink, you find yourself not on the abandoned streets of Night City, rather, the glittering white pillars and spires of Colony One surround you. There can be such oppression in order, can't there? This week the cast analyses Emily St John Mandel's conclusion to a trilogy of novels to try and figure out what exactly is going on.
