Series of Unfortunate Events. In more ways than one.

The next episode of the MAD Podcast will be discussing A Series of Unfortunate Events. The plan was to record today, but we've run into some... well, unfortunate events.

Sarita isn't going to be on because she hasn't read the books. Sarah is doing something today and can't record. Marshall, Deborah and I were just going to do the show with the three of us, but now Deborah can't record. Which means it would just be me and Marshall.

Now, we've done two shows in the past with only two hosts on them, and they've been quite successful. In fact, from some of the listener feedback we've been getting, they were two of our most well-liked episodes. But we're hesitant to do it again this time.

This episode will be discussing both the book series by Lemony Snicket and the movie starring Jim Carrey. We're really excited about this episode, because of the four MADers who have both read the books and watched the movie, two of us favor the movie and the other two favor the books. Unfortunately, as it worked out, Marshall and I both like the movie better. So the whole books-vs-movie discussion we had planned is going to be pretty flat if it's just the two of us discussing.

As such, we've decided to postpone recording until next weekend. This means that the episode will be delayed by another week, but we think it'll be worth it if we're able to have some conflicting view points.

Send in your thoughts about the Series of Unfortunate Events book series and/or movie to themadpodcast@gmail.com and we'll include your thoughts and ideas on the show.
