You wanted to hear more Quillette close-reads, so here it is. We discuss the most bootlicking of all pro-Amazon pieces to ever appear, plus a bizarre 2006 op-ed about shoes from Rafael Behr. Our special guest Juliet Jacques (@zinovievletter) helps us break down just how brain-melt it all is. You'll love it, folks—you'll absolutely love it.
