Books we love, books we hate. Jay and Phil, two old friends with wildly different tastes recommend books for each other, then discuss them, sometimes with surprising results

  1. The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch

    15.05.2022

    The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch

    It's Phil's pick this time around and Jay, under the influence of Chew-Z spends far too much time debating the meaning of the word 'stigmata'.  More importantly, what does a Barbie doll like character called Perky Pat have to do with colonies on Mars? There's a lot to unpack in this second go around with a Phillip K. Dick novel and Jay experiences 60 Freuds of stress as he ends up having to reread the book. (Yes stress is measured in Freuds in the Dickensian universe.)  If you enjoyed this podcast and have some ideas for books that you'd like us to recommend for each other,  leave us feedback on Facebook or at dogearedandcracked.ca (Faithful listeners will remember that last time I warned that if you don't recommend a book for us, Phil may end up breaking  the spine of Dog-eared and Cracked with yet another Phillip K. Dick recommendation. And look where we are now!) We are also on Twitter now...@dogeared_pod, (at least until Palmer Eldritch...oops I mean Elon Musk's purchase offer goes through and we are forced to pay per tweet). Kidding Elon, and yes we will certainly have you on our next podcast.

  2. The Year of Living Biblically

    The Year of Living Biblically

    Pigeon eggs and puzzles, the guys live vicariously through AJ Jacobs as he spends a year living his day to day according to the bible. Has Jay picked a book that Phil enjoyed reading? Or has Phil taken it a step too far this time as he recklessly reads the book by...wait for it...listening to it! If you enjoyed this podcast and have some ideas for books that you'd like us to recommend for each other,  leave us feedback on Facebook or at dogearedandcracked.ca (Seriously, if you don't recommend a book for us, Phil may end up breaking  the spine of Dog-eared and Cracked with yet another Phillip K. Dick recommendation.) We are also on Twitter now...@dogeared_pod

  3. Dune

    Dune

    Wait has Phil picked a book this time that' s not out of print? Hold on, this book has actually been read by a few people. What? Has Dog-eared and Cracked finally sold out ? Picking a book to read that isn't obscure or a hundred years old ? That's right we are taking on Dune this time! Despite all the sand in this book, this podcast is no day at the beach. Tune in to Jay's disappointment when he discovers the book's constant references to spice have nothing to do with the Spice Girls.  If you enjoy listening to the podcast and have some ideas for books that you'd like us to recommend for each other,  leave us feedback on Facebook or at dogearedandcracked.ca We are also on Twitter now...@dogeared_pod

  4. The Night of the Gun

    The Night of the Gun

    In this episode, Jay takes on Phil's pick and together they try and figure out if this is just another junkie memoir or a genuine investigation into the fallacy of our memories. Along the way, Jay introduces controversy in his revolutionary and heroic attempt to change the rating scale. Will Phil hold fast or will the ensuing chaos put the entire future of the podcast in jeopardy?

  5. Autumn

    Autumn

    Autumn, a collection of essays  by Karl Ove Knausgaard, is Jay's pick on this episode.  Will the book become Phil's gateway drug to other Knausgaard collections or do Autumn's leaves blow away in the wind of criticism? (That sounded better in my head) And how does Phil manage to bring baseball into the conversation...yet again?

  6. Knowledge of Angels

    27.08.2021

    Knowledge of Angels

    Jay  drags out every philosophy and theology book he owns to try and keep up with Phil on this one. Turns out Knowledge of Angels involves a child raised by wolves, a shipwrecked atheist and  a  Grand Inquisitor.  Spoiler alert, he's not called the Grand Inquisitor because he's a really good listener.  If you enjoy listening to the podcast and have some ideas for books that you'd like us to recommend for each other,  leave us feedback on Facebook or at dogearedandcracked.ca We are also on Twitter now...@dogeared_pod

  7. Catch-22

    08.08.2021

    Catch-22

    "You mean there's a catch?" "Sure there's a catch," Doc Daneeka replied. "Catch-22.  Anyone who wants to get out of listening to this episode of Dog-eared and Cracked isn't really listening." In this episode, Jay swears a loyalty oath and Phil writes 'share' on a piece of paper in response to Jay's request for a share of Dog-eared and Cracked profits.  This episode is a Dog-eared and Cracked 1st,  as Jay recommends a book for Phil that neither of them has read. Will this  reckless break in protocol create unresolvable chaotic havoc? Or will Jay learn to stop using excessive adjectives? Listen in to find out.

    29.06.2021

    Masters of Doom

    This episode is rated M for Mature as Phil fires up his game controller and challenges Jay to a death match.  Along the way, they discuss polygons, pool sharks, raising teenagers, and the two Johns: Romero and Carmack.   Who ends up defeating the boss monster in their final review of the book?  Level up with Dog-eared and Cracked and find out as they take on Masters of Doom.
