The second installment of our podcast, The Casual Academic (As I Lay Reading). Alex and Jake make their way through the dank murky waters of meaning in A Country Doctor, In the Penal Colony, A Report to an Academy, and touch on some other stories. It's all very Kafkaesque.

NOTE: There is a noticeable improvement in sound quality and from here on out should involve no echo or static. However, there were one or two rough edits. We're still learning. Thanks for any constructive feedback and we are looking forward to your comments.
