Pod Meets World Book Club Ep. 2 – A Deadly Education May 23, 2025

Show notes

The bell has rung! It’s time for another meeting of the Pod Meets World Book Club!

This time it was Will’s pick, and he chose “A Deadly Education” by Naomi Novik, a fantasy novel about a sorceress at a school of magic…and it doesn’t involve any Quidditch.

Spells and homework collide in this first story of “The Scholomance Trilogy,” but did our hosts get sucked into the story? Or were they too bogged down in the world building?
It’s time to serve up a score of how many Turners, and how many Feenys - and find out if Danielle or Rider will continue reading the series?

Pencils down! It’s time to hear the verdict, and find out your next required reading, on the newest installment of the Pod Meets World Book Club…

Before we continue our journey through season 6, we’re rewinding and heading back to the halls of John Adams High! And one of our favorite poetically inclined bullies is coming along for the trip. Ethan Suplee is back to recap the season 2 premiere episode, and his first acting job EVER, “Back 2 School”.
Ethan opens up about the nerves of joining an already established cast and the ever present fear he’d be fired at any moment.
He reveals why his relationship with the other bullies felt like being in a “jail cell” (in the best way), and we get real about how much of Ethan is in Frankie Stecchino.
Plus, Shiloh Strong joins us to talk about his newest charitable venture, all on this week’s Pod Meets World!
