The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown With The Best Show's Jason Gore

Waddup, book nerds! Our special guest for this episode is Jason Gore (The Best Show, UCB’s Characters Welcome). He forced us to read The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown. On its first day the book sold one million copies in the U.S., the UK and Canada, making it the fastest selling adult novel in history. It was number one on the New York Times Best Seller list for hardcover fiction for the first six weeks of its release in 2009. And just last month, NBC bought “Langdon,” a drama based on this very book. But WHY? We break it down.

Mean Book Club is four ladies (from UCB, HuffPost, College Humor, Impractical Jokers) who read, discuss and whine about NYT bestselling books that have questionable literary merit. It's fun. It's cathartic. It's perfect for your commute. New podcast every Tuesday!
