  • 47. How Much Land Does a Man Need (A Perfectly Orchestrated 12 Year Plan by the Devil)

    This week the gals talk about a fan-suggested short story by Leo Tolstoy — “How Much Land Does a Man Need”.

Join the gals as they discuss, and tolerate, April May in Hank Green’s 2018 novel, “An Absolutely Remarkable Thing.” ChinLin’s hamster, Pumpkin, and Wren and Jo’s horribly behaved dogs, who had nothing to contribute to the conversation, Bindi and Koda, make a few appearances as well. Sorry not sorry for their input here and there. Cheers, dears!

  • 41. The Great Gatsby: Part II (Thanks, ZELDA)

    CORRECTION: Gatsby does not kill himself at the end, George (Myrtle’s husband) shoots him!! It was somehow all so boring that we misspoke. As a result, Jo proposes we make this a Pacey Witter Appreciation Podcast now. Join us for the final few chapters of F Scott’s (*AHEM* AND ZELDA’S) masterpiece, The Great Gatsby!
