    47. How Much Land Does a Man Need (A Perfectly Orchestrated 12 Year Plan by the Devil)
    Nov 15 2021

    This week the gals talk about a fan-suggested short story by Leo Tolstoy — “How Much Land Does a Man Need”. The final line in the story is *chef’s kiss* Fast forward to timestamp 19’51” to skip a story of how Wren’s feline ward gave her a heart attack last week and listen for yourself as to why she’s not invited back for future recordings.

    46. Survive the Night: Part II (Do You Wanna Go to Waffle House?)
    Nov 8 2021

    The gals get real giggly in Part II of their Sager conversation this week. The “yeet” count goes through the roof, the mic hitting is at an all time high — sorry not sorry — and FRIENDS quotes make their way in. Bear with us, laugh with us, and get mad at the ending with us. Cheers, dears!

    41. The Great Gatsby: Part II (Thanks, ZELDA)
    May 24 2021

    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!

    OH MAN Y’ALL. Soooo this is not our favorite book! We get WHY people like it, it’s just not for Wren and Jo. Join us this week as we chat about the things we do like, what a butthead F. Scott is, and as we THANK ZELDA FOR MOST OF THE GOOD PARTS.
