Summary

Susu, the Book of Judges, MAGA, morality, the mirror of literature, heavy furniture . . . all of these are discussed on this week’s episode covering “Susu, I Approach You in My Dreams,” which includes the all-too-timely subsection “Being a Bigot.” Brian fills in some biblical background this week, Chad argues that reading Kohler makes you a better person, and Kaija is concerned about cats. This episode’s music is “Coast” by Snocaps. As we head into the end of this season, we’ll be covering a very long section next week: “Going to the River” (pages 534–632). The complete schedule (if you’re reading along in real time) can be found here . You can subscribe to this podcast on Apple , Spotify , YouTube , or wherever you get your podcasts.
