    It's About What We Can't Change: D.J. MacHale's "The Never War"

    It's 1937 in New York City on First Earth and Saint Dane's back for another round of causing chaos and havoc while Bobby learns how to navigate his Traveler duties after the unfortunate death of Uncle Press. The Hindenburg is pulling up and the thought of allowing history to play out seems to contradict the duties of making sure tragedies don't happen that could be prevented; the plot thickens for the complexity of what is and isn't supposed to happen and its effect on our existence as we know it. Please enjoy today's episode and tune in next week for "The Reality Bug"! BYYEEE!!!!

    It's About Manufactured Drama: D.J. MacHale's "The Lost City of Faar"

    Turns out I was so annoyed with Uncle Press and his secrecy in the second book, I didn't even give the song that best fits the book. Cloral is a land of water and unforeseen consequence as Bobby attempts to follow in the footsteps of his uncle with few tips on how to best be the Traveler that the territories will eventually. But it's a part of the plan, apparently, not that I'm convinced. Bobby's doing what he can; better than what I could say for myself. See why Press would be tired of me in today's episode, LOL!  BYYEEE!!!!

    It's About Holding The Right People Accountable: D.J. MacHale's "The Merchant of Death"

    Bobby Pendragon discovers he's a "traveler" and embarks on a journey upholding the balance of Halla as Saint Dane, our primary antagonist, seeks to upend that balance. But amongst the conversation of imperialism, colonialism, and enslavement lies a truth about complicity in systems that maintain the status quo and not always preparing the next generation to handle such immense responsibilities when concerning the fate of others' lives. Enjoy the commentary and keep a watch out for Saturday's episode on Mashama Bailey's "Black, White, and The Grey". BYYEEE!!!!
