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

[@Montie-Adkins]

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.

[@Montie-Adkins]

@Fianna1775 Ok thank you! I actually had a very positive development this afternoon.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I am wishing you the best! I’m so glad you found solace in the stream

[@lieslherman]

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! ;)

[@thefantasynuttwork]

That’s the hope! Thank you!

[@julieevans6482]

the question-mark and no picture decreased the click-bait for this video instead of increased it. I think more people would press on it if they knew it was Murphy

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@julieevans6482 yeah probably haha, oh well 😂

[@messy678]

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!

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I appreciate that so much! I’d love to do more like this but it would be hard to top Merphy’s energy and kindness

[@sw3dge]

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

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I’ll be moving to the basement eventually 👀

[@esmayrosalyne]

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

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Our pleasure!

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.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@andrewlavigne44 oh dang that sounds amazing

[@martabykowska6751]

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

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@martabykowska6751 Merphy is one of my favorite people ever, thank you!

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.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I’ll do my best!

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I’d like to think so tbh

[@robertunijat8299]

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

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

He’s right 😭😭

[@jodell86]

@@thefantasynuttwork He also told me to help you out, if you decide to start a golf stream, you can call it Chattyshack With Nutts. You can send the royalty check to him in Santa Fe.

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

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Hahahahah Merphy is easy to pick on!

[@dillonrogers1812]

I love Jimmy's sense of humor

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I’m relieved hahahah I always worry no one will enjoy it 😂

[@onfaerystories]

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. 😂

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@onfaerystories hahah that’s very kind!

[@bookswithnate]

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!

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@bookswithnate DoD ending is INSANE

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

[@gayanegasparyan4137]

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

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Hes going on the list!

[@Tarantella.Serpentine]

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

[@thefantasynuttwork]

😂😂

[@ericF-17]

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.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@ericF-17 thanks 🙏

[@thatsci-firogue]

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.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

Bahahahaha

[@thatsci-firogue]

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.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

I think it’s because I’m so tall and chadly that she looks short imo

[@thatsci-firogue]

@@thefantasynuttwork how tall are you anyway? 6ft?

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@thatsci-firogue 6’1” but in my heart I’m 8 foot tall

[@thatsci-firogue]

@@thefantasynuttwork Damn, I'm kinda the opposite I'm only 5'11 and always forget by Ireland's standards I'm considered taller than average 😅

[@joshramirez7]

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 😉

[@thefantasynuttwork]

@@joshramirez7 oh snap!

​@thefantasynuttwork Just stumbled across the Game of Thrones course yesterday, it's really cool as well. Love user created stuff in games, especially when there are limited assets to use. The creativity is wild.

Jimmy man-splaining Merphy's height. Classic.

[@thefantasynuttwork]

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
