Alas, we cannot record. Don't worry though, next week we'll catch up to stay in sync with our Reader Calendar (pinned post). Next week's episode will cover pages 117-234 - double whammy coming your way!

We recap and discuss the opening chapters of My Year of Rest and Relaxation, exploring the central question of whether a year of rest is truly healthy—and, if so, whether pill-popping is the right way to go about it. We’d be remiss not to mention that the early pages also feature poop, taxidermied dogs, world-class jizz paintings, and death.
