Listen "Episode 55 - The Grapes of Wrath"
Episode Synopsis
Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal. In our fifty-fifth episode, we recap John Steinbeck's 1939 Dust Bowl adventure, Biblical allegory, and socialist manifesto, The Grapes of Wrath. It's all pigs, sex, and pooping (a shocking amount of pooping). We discover the show's second mono-butt-cheeked character, Abby develops a backup plan for a life of crime, and Daniel goes on a rant about topsoil.Cover art © Catherine Wu.Episode Theme: 'Woody' on guitar and harmonica, by Daniel Jenkin-Smith.
