About this episode
In the season finale, the Dads discuss their first R. L. Stine book, Goosebumps: Monster Blood, while reflecting on various firsts of the season.
How do we start the last episode of our first season? With our first RL Stein book: Goosebumps: Monster Blood ! Is it the first or the third or the 30th of the Goosebumps series? Mike tells us, David doesn’t listen and tries to figure it out, and then David figures it out! Speaking of first or third, in this last episode of season one, there are many firsts! First R. L. "Jovial Bob" Stine Book. First podcast episode recorded entirely in Texas, but without the Dads being together. First time David records away from home—shout out to the Grapevine (Texas) Public Library. Do Mike and David like the book? Here’s a hint: they can’t wait to meet RL “Bob“ Stine to tell him how much they— Aaaaaaaand back to the book.

We really, really liked the names, yes great names like Evan, Aunt Kathryn, and Aaaaaaaaandreaaaaaa or is it AnDREaaaaaaaaaaa or ANDReeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaa? Listen—and read—to find out. So did we like it? Like we typed, listen, watch, learn. If you liked this episode, you’ll love this one: Stink and the Attack…
