📢 Episode Summary:

In the latest Book Club for Wizard and Glass Tadd and Peter re-join the ka-tet outside the Emerald Palace as they get their new ruby shoes/boots on and get ready to click their heels, but it does not work and they realize that it is because Oy is not doing it as well. Once they help Oy the gate opens. The tet goes in and sees a nonsense-filled newspaper with some Blaine references. Much of what they see is straight from the Oz film including the long hallway. They get to the big room with a massive throne and rainbow organ as the voice starts booming out at them, and Blaine's route map appears out of fog. They go back and forth with the voice until Oy reveals the man behind the curtain, which is Tick Tock man. Then on the throne appears Marten or Flagg, the Deans dispose of Tick Tock. Roland's guns do nothing against Flagg, he tells them all to forsake the Tower, Roland draws the Ruger shocking Flagg but it caught on his belt buckle allowing Flagg to escape. He leaves behind the Grapefruit though, and Roland knows he must tell the final chapter of his story if the tet is to survive and they are to find the Beam again.

📢 Episode Summary:

In the latest Round Table Tadd and Peter Palaver on a few things, first they discuss the ending (yes again) through the lens of people who were disappointed in it and how their desires don't align with King in general and this story in particular. Then similar to the discussion last month on Jake being the most important character to get right the boys go through all 8 book and discuss which supporting characters will be the most important for each season (assuming each book would be a season, which is not Flanagan's plan but for this discussion they pretend). Then Peter talks a bit about his final few King books to achieve his 100% badge. Then King has been posting some stuff on Other Worlds Than These including the fact it is the FINAL Dark Tower book. He also tells us about a new Bumbler named Richard. Then they have announced that Patton Oswalt is the narrator for OWTT. Next is Flanagan's The Mist the perfect setup for his Tower? Then an article on the wrtiers Top 10 King Short Stories which Tadd and Peter will do their own version of this on the next Round Table. Then some Odds and Ends and Uncle Stevie Recommends.
