A Long Road Podcast

Group Members: Raven Tanpranadi, Kaleb Harris, Chris Jacobs, Tony Nelson, and Yasir Thomas

Our podcast episode was based on the book The Road by Cormac McCarthy in which we summarized and discussed the literary and figurative language used within the book. Whether it might be the weird mentioning of bridges that the characters never seem to cross or random burnt corpses scattered across the cold ashy barrens of this apocalyptic world. the episode is packed full of weirdly interesting events and more is to come.

Book references:

Mother quote: 57

Father’s opinion on religion: 8

Burnt Corpse: 49

Bridges that the author never seems to mention the characters crossing: 6, 41, 43, 46, 73, 76,

Our logo is the storyline diagram shown below the video. Why have we chosen it you might ask? This generic sequence of events. It is because for half of the book the story has only incorporated the exposition, lacking any rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. We chose the image to spite the author.
