History Podcast / ThreeHundredSeventyTwoPagesWellNeverGetBack

** The title refers to the number of pages in their copy of Ready Player One, the first book they covered. Later books would have more or fewer pages.
** The segment Real or Fanfic originally had passages from actual Ready Player One fanfiction to illustrate how the prose was indistinguishable. As later books covered became increasingly obscure, they instead solicited submissions from readers intentionally attempting to mimic the given book's style.

* ''Literature/ReadyPlayerOne'' by Ernest Cline

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: ''The Mister'' was mocked for bringing up Alessia's fellow Albanian sex trafficking victims, one of whom was named Bleriana, without explaining if they got rescued or not. As a result, any time a plot thread gets dropped in a book it is said to have been "Bleriana'd" as a CallBack. (Bleriana evidently does get mentioned in the sequel ''The Missus'', however, so the name may become somewhat misleading.)

* ''Literature/Artemis'' by Creator/AndyWeir

** Appending "...said the robot pimp disdainfully." to any particularly preposterous dialogue, taken from a sentence in ''Tek War''.

* Irene Iddesleigh by Creator/{{Amanda McKittrick Ros}}

* ''Tek War'' by Creator/WilliamShatner, ghostwritten by Ron Goulart

* {{Zeerust}}: They get a lot of mileage out of ''Literature/TekWar'''s cover blurb about being "gleaming with insight" into the future. Most of it amounts to this, either in lazy form (just slapping "plas-" or "Sector" onto random words) or dated technology (such as robots having chest-mounted inkjet printers).

* ThisIsGonnaSuck: This frequently occurs in the podcast, [[SoBadItsGood given the type of material]] [[DarthWiki/SoBadItsHorrible they're reading]]. Whenever they do "Fanfiction Or Real", they'll usually groan whenever realizing a particularly bad passage came from a future chapter of the book they're reading.

* TooBleakStoppedCaring: [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] in regards to ''Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff'', in which every character is a despicable, grotesque and hateful weirdo; and the "plot" (insofar as it exists beyond word salad and Sean Penn ranting about his strange political views) is a parade of pointless violence, bizarre sex, and [[TooSoon recent atrocities]] (Hurricane Katrina, Afghanistan War, 9/11, etc). They point out that the book is intended as a BlackComedy, but none of the jokes are actually funny and mostly just stupid if not themselves repulsive, which only adds to the malaise.

* ''The Mister'' by E. L. James

** Any description that distances a character from their own feelings or actions ("I felt myself relax" instead of "I relaxed", for example) is described as "Clineian", after the hosts noticed Ernest Cline's propensity to do this in ''Ready Player One'' and ''Armada''.
