The Obsolete Man

About this episode

The episode discusses a totalitarian state where a librarian named Romney Wordsworth is declared obsolete and plans to prove his worth.

In a totalitarian state, a librarian named Romney Wordsworth has been declared obsolete. But with an unusual request for his liquidation, he plans to show them why you should never underestimate a librarian. Nicole and Peter will rule on this shadowy episode and discuss director’s cuts, befuddling tie choices, and the season two draft. We hope you’ll join us.
