Hey there!

Guess whose back? Deja's back, Deja's back, Deja's back.... But in this episode no one is talking about a monster... but maybe Salman Rushdie...

Salmon Rushdie wrote a book that landed himself on the wrong side of a huge sect of Islam... and it was exclusively accidental. Rushdie wanted to write a book that took a rather fevered dream / humorous approach to the Old Testament figures that may or may not have been influenced by intervening forces beyond our control. 

Long story short, Rushdie decided to write a book, in the middle of a certain time, surrounded by a group of followers, that ultimately attacked someone who went too far in their world. 

Join the intrepid trio of nerdiness as they explore the world of intense religious beliefs and a book intended to be a humorous satire.
