We discuss Mad Max: Fury Road, which a singular Men's Right Activist didn't like and thus inspired millions to see. Max is the Nick Caraway of the Namibian Dream. Amber's reign of post-apocalyptic terror will involve water troughs so long as someone lets her farm. We go to a dark place about baby steaks.

Thomm Quackenbush is an author and teacher in the Hudson Valley. He has published four novels in his Night's Dream series (We Shadows, Danse Macabre, Artificial Gods, and Flies to Wanton Boys). He has sold jewelry in Victorian England, confused children as a mad scientist, filed away more books than anyone has ever read, and tried to inspire the learning disabled and gifted. He is capable of crossing one eye, raising one eyebrow, and once accidentally groped a ghost. When not writing, he can be found biking, hiking the Adirondacks, grazing on snacks at art openings, and keeping a straight face when listening to people tell him they are in touch with 164 species of interstellar beings.
