        It was sooo good. I’m reading Kaiju Battle Surgeon right now by Matt, but it doesn’t hit the same. Can’t wait for more Carl and Donut! Have you checked out the full cast audio “season” they did of the first book? Not the regular audio book, which is great, but it has the same dude playing Carl but has tons of others. The funny part is Patrick Warburton plays Carl’s dad which is hilarious because in the audio books Jeff Hayes voice for Carls Dad sounded exactly like Patrick Warburton lol.

          Yes! I’m a big fan of sound booth theater- they really kick the audio book game up a notch. Maybe some disagree, but I don’t feel like adding some sound effects, music, or a large cast detract from a narrators performance if done well, and they do a great job. I discovered the series because I stumbled on https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36469357-morningwood and had a lot of fun listening to it- the audio book is narrated by the same guy as Carl. Fun series if you like raunchy D&D inspired stories- in this one, the hero is the monster- a mimic.

            Oh shit that sounds great. Thanks for that, getting it now.

            And yeah soundsbooth is great, I’m with you, I know some don’t like it, but I think it doesn’t detract from it at all. If anything in the Carl series it helps.

            I’ll try to remember to come back and tell you what I thought of Morningwood. Perfect name too if it fits into the Carl type category.

                I work in pest control so most of my day is spent outside or driving around in my truck and all I do is listen to audiobooks all day long at work. So I probably go through a book every one and a half to two days so I’m excited for something that sounds so much like the Carl style. I don’t even play games but back when I did. I did mess around with RPGs but I’m actually surprised I’m so into litRPG as I am. I already bought it, gonna listen tomorrow.

                  Bitchin! I only really get to listen to/from work and before bed- I’m a software engineer and I cant listen to audio books and code at the same time, it just doesn’t work- but I did recently cross the 400 audible book mark last year, so at least I’m making the effort!

                    That’s impressive for limited time. I think I managed to clear 280 books this last year, but that counts both audible and reading because I read the same books I’m listening to while I’m in bed. Most of them are available for free with Kindle. I love the pest control life. It’s a very calm job with lots and lots of personal freedom. Hell I don’t even have to pick up the truck. It stays with me at all times. I wake up in the morning, Open my app, do my jobs and come home when I’m done lol. And it’s a pretty good career. In fact, they’re moving my whole family from Oklahoma to Sacramento, California in a couple of months for me to open new offices. But like I said all I do is listen to audiobooks all day long lol. It’s a pretty good life.
