Late to the Party Book Club - Episode 16 - Scott Pilgrim Vol 4 - Scott Pilgrim Gets It Together

We are BACK with our annual holiday special! Yes, that's right. In 2020, we decided we were going to make our Scott Pilgrim reviews a Christmas tradition. So here we are, with vol 4 in the series, Scott Pilgrim: Scott Pilgrim Gets It Together. And we are once again joined by our PCP Bad Batch brother in arms, Rockin' Robbie Billups!

 

Thank you to all of our listeners for another fun year. Happy Christmas, Merry New Year, and be excellent to one another!
