Please know that we are testing this to try and generate enough to pay for someone to run the production/editing side of the show as my schedule is getting too busy to accommodate getting it done on time, all the time. Iβve taken ads off, but the subscription will be available going forward. Thanks!
Ok, the Apple Podcasts subscription issue has been half fixed and half⦠not so much. If you are interested in doing a year-long subscription, the price point is listed incorrectly right now and will be fixed (i.e. increased) on the 4th to be $24.99 for a full year
Our first episode proper on Infinite Jest is out. Grab a large wooden spoon and some granola before you give it a listen

@alexjennings.bsky.social I just finished my second reading of The Ballad of Perilous Graves (this time with a wonderfully NOLA-jazz playlist in the background) and loved it just as much as the first time. When are we getting another novel from you?!
Due to various health-related issues (donβt worry, itβs nothing serious), we are postponing our next episode. Weβll be back once weβre all back to full health
Weβre discussing having a zine to go along with the show and want to know if there is sufficient interest from the audience to enable us to do it. Most likely, it would be a quarterly publication that would be sent to subscribers (likely through Ko-Fi) with various writings from all of us. Thoughts?

I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method... is love. I love you Sheriff Truman.β

βWhile I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King. My concerns are global...
Currently working on getting our Apple Podcasts subscription set up, which is proving more difficult than I had anticipated. Hopefully I will have it up and running in the next few days and subscribers will get ad-free episodes and early access to our Infinite Jest episodes (a week early)
@bookforum.bsky.social Just got my first issue and saw the cover! Canβt wait to read it!
Kate and I just finished recording for our first episode proper on Infinite Jest (pages 1-105) and had a blast. The episode will be out one week early for Apple Podcasts subscribers and for everyone else on 01 March 2026
Trans woman, wonderfully anti-establishment, great hip-hop lyricist. Tickets are like $20. Go see her if you can.
Ghost Parachute always brings it, so I'm extra honored this piece will be in their forthcoming anthology!

Due to an ID10T error, the intro episode for Infinite Jest was not made available on YouTube until now. Or soon-ish. I just uploaded it. Sorry!
βProudly presentβ should never precede anything made by AI
@leafbyleaf.bsky.social weβd love to have you on the show to discuss Against the Day since we are coming up to the end of Part II. Let me know if youβre interested and available!
Aw, man
