Episode One: We're Duned

Okay, Duners! Welcome to our podcast about Frank Herbert's Dune. In this, the inagural episode, we (Lance and Molly) discuss our ~special relationships~ with Dune, our intentions for this lil pod, the movies we watched this week (featuring such flicks as Eric Rohmer's The Green RAY and steampunk heartthrob Mortal Engines), and David Lynch's phantasmagoric, electric sandworm, hottest-Sting-you've-ever-seen 1984 adaptation. Unfortunately we do not get to this last section (and arguably the main feature of this ep) until the 49:30 mark lol. We also play a fun game about Denis Villeneuve's forthcoming take on FH's masterpiece. For the next episode, we will be reading the first six chapters so try and read those before next Friday (4/24). Also! if you haven't yet gotten the book, consider supporting your local indie (https://www.bookpeople.com/) <3. Alright see y'all in the DUNES.
