It's election day and we need a really big distraction from the anxiety of it all. So why not dive into the anxiety of the titular character in this weeks read Where'd You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple!

In this absurdist (our word) satire (their word) we are thrown into the life of Bernadette Peters world renowned actress, Broadway belter, and all around believable lady and ‐‐ *checks notes* -- sorry Bernadette Fox, LA transplant, renowned architect, no waste queen and all around hater of people. We always get those two confused!

Let's make a deal with a god that we dont believe in about this election cycle. If our candidate wins (do we even have to say who?) We wont ask anymore pertinent questions like:

How are Avril Lavigne and Bernadette Fox related?

What year is too late to act like fax communication between friends is plausible?

What year did Zune stop production?

What kind of podcast are we? (Note: We are NOT a cussing podcast)

Honestly, we could use a nice relaxing cruise to the Atlantic right about now....you know, Bee might have been on to something. Brace the high, dry winds of Antarctica with us in this week's episode, Where'd You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple!
