Such a great podcast! I'm listening to the book club episodes as I reread the books.
Thus podcast is simply magnificent. I'm a newcomer to the Dune universe, having seen the Lynch film (which came out before inwas born) and been instantly turned off to further exploration of the universe. The new film however, is simply breathtaking, and I'm now diving deep into the books much as I did after having seen Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy as a middle schooler. To that end, I have found this podcast to be wonderfully entertaining and enlightening, while at the same time crafting its episodes in ways that enrich my experience of working through the lore without leaning heavily on spoilers. I've recommended it to friends, coworkers, and family, and will gladly continue to do so. Thank you for putting out such tremendous content!
Thanks for the podcast. It has been years since I read the Dune books and your review is bringing back a lot of good memories of the complex plot.
