Chatting With Nutts - Episode #79 LIVE IN PERSON SPECIAL GUEST! 

In case you missed it, and because others agreed, my greatest solace in life in watching booktubers like you guys. I had a tough weekend (job loss) and this made me feel good.

This absolute made my day, guys!! You two are some of the most precious humans out there... These laughs are the best. I can't wait until you collect a full set of in-person interviews, Jimmy! Allen, Johanna, Phillip, Bookborn, etc etc... Gotta catch them all! ;)

Excuse me the joke of the booktuber not having legs is my thing, I have a patent from it, and you will be hearing from my legal team for using that joke

The revelation that this studio is not, in fact, in a basement, shattered my world view.

Bless you two for rocking this episode in the sweltering heat, hahah. Peak bantering, I love it. Thanks for the fun ☺

This was a great surprise and so much fun! I imagine getting people in person takes a ton of planning and work, but I sure do appreciate it! I’ve already rewatched the first part of this!

Wow! Such a wonderful surprise. This was a roller-coaster of an episode, with fun banter and deep discussions, all in person. More of this, please, whenever possible.

Needed this after a downer of a day. Really great dynamic here. Enjoyed this a lot!

I had so much fun watching you two!

This was a great chat, I love the dynamic between you two! Thanks Jimmy and Merphy!

Forget reading a book with Jimmy I want to do a workout

You guys have the best chemistry! It feels like I'm hanging out with friends ❤

I really enjoyed this !! Awesome energy🙏 🤘🐺🔥💙

Great job !! ❤ it.

This was such a fun episode. The energy was off the charts! Are you sure you guys didnt add anything to that coffe beforehand 😆

Jimmy, you should try Tchaikovsky's Elder Race. It's all of 200 pages and is two alternating POVs: one is a traditional fantasy princess going to ask a wizard in his tower for help, the other is the "wizard" himself who is actually a researcher from a future Earth where tech is significantly no different to these people from magic. He's not supposed to interact with them at all but decides he can't let many of them die from the coming crisis. Very fun book with things getting translated differently between the two sides, like when the researcher pulls up his voiced computer feed they think he's communing with spirits for advice.

This was such a great surprise The only way this could be even better is if Allen walked in mid-stream! Love you guys!

What a fun episode! I laughed so much

A great chat between one of booktubes Juggernauts and Merphy. Can't wait to re-read GOTM after finishing Toll the Hounds...there's so much a re-read would contextualize. Also I'm still with you that Dust of Dreams is a solid Malazan book. Just over the halfway point. Cheers, Jimmy!

Fun conversation! The banter was funny.

I loved Chess Story and enjoyed 24 Hours in the Life of a Woman by Zweig. I'm currently reading an autobiographical non-fic by him called The World of Yesterday (on the impact of the world Wars on Austria, where he grew up, and the world at large). I just love his elegant and evocative writing style. 👌 I've also read A Shadow In Summer and A Betrayal in Winter and can't wait to continue on. 🙌 I'm so excited for Murphy to start this series as well! I get it Murphy, Jimmy's smile would be distracting for me too. 😂

The way you two banter, I’d swear you were siblings lol! 😂

"Worst golf stream ever!" -George Rail Road Martin

I cannot wait till the moment I get to meet Merphy.

My jaw dropped!

Lol it took half an hour for you guys to calm down and talk about books. Nice video.

I love Jimmy's sense of humor

Flexing that booktube star power

WHOAAAAAA This is the greatest mash up in the history of booktube????

Way late to this, but personally I could not imagine you disliking City of Last Chances. I think it's great, and I'm pretty certain it fits your tastes decently. This was a really fun episode too.

Sibling dynamic man. This is like me and my sister 🤣

Zweig is an amazing writer, recommend his short stories esp Amok and a novel called Beware of Pity which is incredible

Dude, Gardens is ridiculously good on re-read. It was superb. And I loved Kruppe and Whiskeyjack and I was mid on them first time around. Also, Merphy is shorter than I expected. Kithamar is good so far, I don't see it loving it more than LPQ though. I still have to do Dagger & Coin and The Expanse and I NFNed his Urban Fantasy series.

Nuttz. get the star trek outfit it will change everything. trust

Changes is one of the few really hyped up books that absolutely met the hype for me, and I'm absolutely 100% confident you won't like it.

"No don't compliment me, we're riffing" "Oh my bad, I hate you" 🤣🤣 Nothing beats the energy live, great stream, laughed alot

The in-person format really works well! Best of luck trying to make it happen more going forward, we need one with Allen...so much haha Btw, nice to see your commitment to golf you keep mentioning in your videos! Hope you are seeing improvements, it can be an infuriating sport! Also, there is a Middle Earth inspired course someone created in PGA 2k23, not sayin just sayin 😉

Jimmy man-splaining Merphy's height. Classic.

Merphy actually has another half channel, I won't say more.....but it includes some dude in a room and an unfortunate little and innocent octopus 😥

I'm sad you don't know who Adam Ondra is. If you ever want to have your mind blown on what people can do, you can watch the video of Adam Ondra climbing the route called "Silence" the hardest route ever. Dude straight up has locked gravity in his basement and bullied it into not applying to him

Would 100% watch Merphy stream Elden Ring!!

HOTD _and_ CWN w/ Merphy...? 😵

The euphoria reference when Murphy was talking about her first book review killed me. BIGGEST hater
