Jen and Tim throw a pool party and invite Charles of the No Homework podcast to talk about the enervating suburban world of The Swimmer!

Here is a representative sample of the “Hi, Guy!” series of Right Guard ads starring Bill Fiore, aka Mr. Hunsacker in The Swimmer. And here’s Jan Miner, aka Mrs. Hunsacker, as Madge the Palmolive lady.

Cheever was indeed only adapted once for the big screen, but there have been a scattering of TV adaptations. This one, The Sorrows of Gin from 1979, stars Sigourney Weaver and Edward Herrmann!
