A tangent episode in which Kaisha, Kelsey, and Dylan delve into more bitter winter reads. Language warning: we’ve been known to drop the occasional f-bomb. Sick of the snow? Going stir crazy? Then this is the episode for you. Not only do we list some of our favorite blizzard reads, but Dylan dishes about his favorite post apocalyptic read: if you think people suck now, just wait until society collapses. We put forth an argument for reading Kafka and answer that age old question: does anyone get Kafka? Kelsey brings up a Stephen King dilema. Kaisha talks about laughing at the misery of others and so much more.
