    The Sillymarillion Ep 02 - The Choices of Master Fëanor (J.R.R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion)

    29-05-2026 | 1 u. 7 Min.
    For this show-within-a-show, Craig and Andrew learned about the world of Middle-Earth by reading J.R.R. Tolkien's posthumously published legendarium THE SILMARILLION. This episode posted first for our Patreon supporters in July 2025. If you want to hear our current longread project TOKYO DRIFTERS (and a bunch of other stuff besides), visit Patreon.com/overduepod.
    The Elves are here, and it's time to learn all about them! Because there are a whole bunch of different sub-types of them, mostly sorted by whether and how quickly they decided to heed the summons to come party with the gods on their paradise island.
    The most important one we meet is Fëanor, who forges the book's MacGuffins and then instantly gets super weird and possessive about them, in a way that ensures lasting misery for all involved. Hooray!
    The reading list:
    Ep 1 - Ainulindale, Valaquenta, Quenta Silmarillion Ch 1-3
    Ep 2 - Quenta Silmarillion Ch 4-10
    Ep 3 - Quenta Silmarillion Ch 11-16
    Ep 4 - Quenta Silmarillion Ch 17-20
    Ep 5 - Quenta Silmarillion Ch 21-24
    Ep 6 - Akallabeth, Of the Rings of Power and the Third Age, Appendices

    Ep 752 - Daisy Jones and The Six, by Taylor Jenkins Reid

    25-05-2026 | 1 u. 19 Min.
    In 2019, author Taylor Jenkins Reid released her sixth novel Daisy Jones & The Six, a fictional oral history of a Fleetwood Mac-esque 70s rock band. In May 2026, Andrew and Craig from Overdue recorded a podcast about the author, her novels, the themes and points of inspiration that helped make Daisy Jones a bestseller. This is an aural history of that recording.

    Ep 751 - Annie Bot, by Sierra Greer

    18-05-2026 | 1 u. 12 Min.
    Less a story about AI, and more "what if that Star Trek episode about whether Data was a person was also exploring the concept of domestic abuse?" Greer writes a short punchy novel that is occasionally uncomfortable but thoughtfully constructed, not unlike a sentient humanoid robot might be.

    Ep 750 - Project Hail Mary, by Andy Weir

    11-05-2026 | 1 u. 15 Min.
    In the not-so-distant future, Andy Weir will write a novel about a Competent Man getting into trouble and then getting himself out. Then it will be made into a major motion picture starring a relatively bankable movie star. Then Overdue will (probably) read the book. That's what happened with The Martian, and that is what's happening this week with Project Hail Mary -- a novel about a science teacher on a mission to save Earth (and maybe some other planets) from an otherworldly threat.
