In this episode, Tania reads a short memoir piece and introduces her suggestible muse; we talk about #Charlottesville, race relations, and Southerners; and we invoke memoirists Michelle Obama, Bruce Springsteen, and Trevor Noah. [Spoilers for Mad Men and Greek mythology]

Tania expresses her appreciation to Greg Prieto and Raquel Bernaldo for introducing her to the activity that inspired this piece.

CORRECTION: Tania’s book, Beyond Your Bubble, was published in 2020 (not 2000)
