One of the brainiest TMRs to date, this episode talks a lot about doubles and mirrors in\u00a02666<\/em>, religious iconography, coincidence vs. fate, disappearances and vanishing, the creeping horror found in this novel, the abyss and the void, musicals, and much more. Brian, Chad, and Katie cover the entirely of “The Part Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ the Critics” and will do all of “The Part Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ Amalfitano” next episode. Enjoy!<\/p>\n

This week’s music is from Kunzite.<\/p>\n
