    Chapters 0015, 0016 & 0017 - Planet Shermer - Ready Player Two
    If you grew up watching John Hughes movies, perhaps Planet Shermer would be the first world in the OASIS you visit. Or, maybe not?

Where would you go first? Take a day off, grab the key's to the Ferrari, and let's Get To The Good Part!

    Chapter 0014 - Ready Player Two

    Next stop, Shermer, Illinois! Our Gunter team has arrived, and Art3mis lays out the ground rules: Don't talk to anyone, don't touch anything, don't do anything, don't interact with anyone, and try not to look at anything. Simple, right? Watch out for needle drops and NPCs, and let's Get To The Good Part!

    Chapter 0013 - Ready Player Two

    The laborious play-by-play of Sega Ninja is over--finally--only to watch the awkwardness that is teenage romance. After Wade "experiences" the moment Kira and Ogden meet (and the moment James Halliday learns all about being the third wheel), we snag the Second Shard, and figure out where we are going next. We might need some help, so let's give Art3mis a call, and Get To The Good Part!

Can Wade unleash his inner Gunter and get in the zone amidst all that delicious tomato sauce and pizza grease potpourri? Go grab your slices, and let's Get To The Good Part!

    Tune in after the outro for a little extra nugget about this chapter.

    "You're dead already!" Sarah Connor once exclaimed; but she's not talking about Art3mis! She hit the ground running, and so are we, as the level of excitement makes a significant uptick. Our favorite gunters are back in style, and ready to solve the latest riddle. The second shard is waiting, so let's Get To The Good Part!
