Back to EpisodesEp 99: Dave's new bike, Long live the queen, Tennis, bots, and books, Ukraine and Lithuania
Description
Dave gets to brag about his new bike that he ordered in early November. It's a GiantRevolt gravel bike that meets all his needs, but he's keeping his other four bikes anyway. He got the bike at Roll-here.
6:25 Dave meets his first actual Spotted Lantern Fly, which causes Del to go nearly orgasmic. Pretty but not pretty [the bug, that is].
9:15 The Queen is dead, long live the Queen. You all knew about this but it is still buck- worthy.
14:00 Del channel surfs between the US Open tennis matches and Battle Bots. Maybe there will be a new sport dealing with Serena Williams, best player ever, battling robots. Our money is on Serena.
19:50 Book reports on VV1's beautiful essay about her dog and:
- Lady Chatterly's Lover by D. H. Lawrence
-Sand by Hugh Howey
- Silo by Hugh Howey
- more by Lois McMaster Bujold
23:15 Del tries to teach Dave card games with little success.
27:22 Dave gives an update on how the Ukraine war has affected a relative in Lithuania.
Terry [the OB one, not the sweet CN one] opines on Del: His mind is a Rolodex of ideas and he's just flipping through the cards. So true!
