    A Song of Ice and Fire (Released Spoilers)

    Yeah I started reading about the time Wizard and Glass came out and I loved it. Probably one of my favorite SK books. I can see how it would be frustrating if you waited for years though and it didn't advance the story at all. Because of Wheel of Time and the Dark Tower, I refused to read A...

    NFL 2020 Season: Gravy Edition!

    Do you go to the TV threads and post about shows you don't watch too? I don't give a shit about the politics of the players, coaches, or league. If you have to agree politically with people to watch the entertainment that they produce then you are going to be pretty limited in what you can...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    https://amazingribs.com/tested-recipes/spice-rubs-and-pastes/meatheads-memphis-dust-rub-recipe This is the one I use. Nice thing about it is there's no salt in it so you can salt the ribs in advance and then just apply the rub right before you put them in the smoker.

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I'm posting it for people who may not know. If you notice, generally when people post the episode in this thread, they also post the description so we know who the guest is.

    I thought that it was interesting that the slaver companies tried to rationalize what they did because they said plantation slaves had a better life than where they came from in Africa. You can't just set aside the fact that you are property being forced to work against your will, but on the...

    If you're pouring it in the concrete don't use an anchor. Just use a piece of all thread and wire a chunk or two of rebar to hold it in place.

    NFL 2020 Season: Gravy Edition!

    Sherman also took a low dollar, incentive laden contract because he was on the older side and coming off of a serious injury. Seems pretty similar to Cam's contract. And yeah, that transcendent talent hasn't been seen for a while, and there's a pretty valid concern whether a guy that's in his...

    You have almost a year to read up on it. Plenty of stuff on YouTube about building decks. Good reason to buy tools and maybe even rent a skid steer or something!

    If you're going to tear the whole thing off the house I would definitely replace everything while you're at it. You don't want to go to all that effort and expense just to have to do it all over again in 5 years.

    Yeah I would love to hear Curt talk about his adventures in the gaming industry but I don't think Joe would be the guy to do the interview. There would be a lot of "Orc? WTF is an orc?"

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I was kind of disappointed in Jon Stewart. I guess I was expecting him to say something profound and he even said early in the podcast "people expect me to say something profound". Just seemed like a not particularly well informed liberal so maybe it's good that he's retired. It was also only...

    The Fast Food Thread

    I don't understand why it is but I recently got a cuisinart toaster oven that has a pizza stone and that thing cooks digiorno pizzas much better than a standard oven for some reason. The top is 100% browned and crispy and the crust raises higher than it does in the regular oven. That's not...

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I liked that he called out the fact that Mahr has 250 shills in the audience for every show. That's my number one pet peeve about the show. When somebody makes a good point vs. Mahr he just makes a joke, looks at the audience, they go crazy whether the joke is funny or not, and then he changes...

    NFL 2020 Season: Gravy Edition!

    If you watched the games you know why he had 8 catches. The 49ers ran the ball 90% of the time and the opposing teams had no answer for it. Kittle was a huge part of that. He was a beast in the playoffs in a way that Kelce isn't capable of being. Kittle blocks like an offensive lineman...

    Anchorage isn't *that* cold. There's places in the lower 48 with lower average temperatures. If you're homeless in Fairbanks though, you're hardcore.

    Can you imagine the nerd rage that would have happened if in 2011 when GoT started the book fans would have been told that in 2020 GRRM would be predicting that book 6 was only a year away?

    Dan Carlin's Hardcore History

    If you like Hardcore History, there's another podcast called MartyrMade that you should really check out. It's not as strictly historical as HH. He does a lot of cultural and philosophical stuff. Obviously a very smart guy and the podcast just gets better and better. Currently it's on part 6...

    I don't know about that. I'm sure the authorities in Texas don't give a shit about him smoking weed in the privacy of his house, but if he's doing it on the podcast they might look at that as rubbing their face in it and make an example of him. I don't think the episodes where he smokes pot are...

    I have never had one, but I think a hot tub is one of those things that sounds nice, but after the first month it just becomes something you have to maintain constantly and don't use that much. I know they turn into a cesspool pretty quickly if you don't stay on top of maintenance and keeping...

    They're claiming 1 gbps down and 20ms latency. It's different because the satellites are in low earth orbit. Traditional satellite internet uses a single satellite in geosynchronous orbit, which means that everyone is sharing one device that is like 20,000 miles away. Starlink will have...

    Shanahan hired Lynch. I think he'll be around as long as Shanahan wants him around. All indications are that they love each other and I agree that Lynch has done a great job so far so I would be pretty shocked if his job is in jeopardy.
