'Castle Drac Von Stoller' & 'Death in the Wilderness' by Drac Von Stoller

Episode Notes One would think that it isn't possible to jam-pack a book with racism, homophobia, sexism and general bigotry and STILL be meandering and nonsensical. But this author didn't win a 'palm award' for nothing. We learn: Ben's got COVID Gretchen gets lazy and Glen finally guesses the punchline to one of her jokes Glen's got no car, and no teeth Glen REFUSES to homestead his place.

Holmes is an unlikable turd and he sucks at his job. Chapter 6? Ooooh, you get a classic, creepy mansion story. You'll like that one. But Holmes still sucks.
