We went back and recorded this mini-episode when we were a little more than halfway through the book because we realized our first episode didn't do a great job of introducing us or what you could expect from the podcast. Welcome! This podcast is a book club where we read and talk about Infinite Jest, the 1996 novel by David Foster Wallace. It's a book about tennis, experimental film, depression, addiction, experimental tennis, global politics, recovery, and a few other things.
