Round Table #84 Show Notes

O Discordia!

Before we get into the somber news Chris from Australia had a great idea, to open up a communal spreadsheet for King Reading Lists. That way you can compare your progress to Me or Peter or any other listener. One note, please be kind and don’t fiddle with stuff outside your column though that goes without say. Check that out HERE. Just enter your name on row 1 of a given column and check the ones you have read and the sheet should do the rest.

Last up as requested my movie collection. Unfortunately there is no way to share it without some of my collectibles being included.

First my top shelves. These are hanging above my TV and my collection. Mostly it is Box Sets and fun little things that have come with Box Sets, and a few collectibles to decorate a bit.

Not totally pictured on the right is the OJ Simpson Made in America Documentary. DOWN IN FRONT KORG!!
The one most hidden is Scarface set from about a decade ago. It came with DVD’s of both the original and the 1983 remake.
Clone Wars Seasons 1-5 is behind Hera.
The least obvious is the Universal Monsters Box set behind Stranger Things.
First shelf. I can get an overall picture of this one, the second shelf not so much due to the desk with all the Podcast stuff.

Also I alphabetize but I go top row shelf 1 to top row shelf 2 then down to row 2. It is the easiest to allow new things to be added without moving a lot of stuff around.
Shelf 1 top half.




Shelf 2 top half.
Shelf 2 bottom half.
