The Two Mikes

The Two Mikes
Ever wanted to talk with someone about a book you just read? You could just join a book group and talk about it, drink a little, veer off on tangents, work back around to the book again, and finally wrap it up by picking the next book.

But what happens when the book you just read is about about hungry zombies or a haunted house, and your Eat, Pray, Love–reading friends aren’t really into reading it, much less discussing its finer points? That’s what we’re here for. We Two Mikes will be your virtual book group for discussing new and interesting and old and half-forgotten horror books.

If you want to follow along with us, look at the next forbidden book on the table and start reading.

Episode 168 The Monk by Matthew Lewis

 

Let's tonsure our hair, put on the scratchy robes and make the vows with The Two Mikes and Matthew Lewis in The Monk.  Celibacy is not all that is cracked up to be, so throw in a little Lucifer, a smidge of witchcraft and a pinch of lust and you got yourself one hell of a gothic tale. 

 

It's Cocktail Time!

The Bleeding Nun

You are going to layer these liquors.  

Hint: Put the bottle of booze in the fridge before you attempt this.

In a shot glass, pour in a half shot of Kahlua and on the back of a spoon pour in a half shot of Rumchata and then a trickle of Kinky Red.  Shoot it!

Chin Chin.
