  1. Are there any podcasts similar to Idle Thumbs in that they're not afraid to joke around, but with more of a focus on game design/development? Also, I don't mind incredibly long casts.

     

    Try One Life Left.  Its the only other game podcast i thoroughly enjoy as much as Idle Thumbs, and the style is similar-ish 


  2. Not sure if I know something similar, but here are some Books I would recommend:

     

    for some heavy reading : 

    House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski

    Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace

    Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson

     

    Less Heavy:

    The Wind Up Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi

    Super Sad True Love Story by Gary Shteyngart

     

    Light Reads:

    Bite Me by Christopher Moore

    Dresden Files Books by Jim Butcher

    Culture books by Ian M Banks

     

    thats what i got off the top of my head. I tend to read a lot too, so hit me up if you want more suggestions! 

     

    and from the style of the book you described above (havent read it), look for a short story called Flowers to Algernon. Similar style i think. But its a very well known short story, so I think you know it :)
