    Another show, the penultimate of Season 1. Thank you everyone. I'm going to try to utilize this space more. And write my thoughts less.

    Father's First I and II


    He'd admit it's like a dark vestige of his old low-self-esteem suicidal-thrill behaviors. He doesn't have a license, it's not his car, it's a priceless art-object car, it's his boss's car, who he owes his life to and sort of maybe loves, he's on a vegetable-run for shattered husks of newcomers just out of detox whose eyes are rolling around in their heads.

    He couldn't for the goddamn life of him understand how this thing worked, this thing that was working. It drove him bats.

About Infinite Jest Book Club

From the publisher's feed

This is an experiment. We are attempting to turn our book club Zoom calls into a podcast series. We will be reading, discussing, and dissecting Infinite Jest, written by David Foster Wallace. This group is comprised of mostly repeat readers of the novel, so spoilers may abound.
