Episode Synopsis

Send us a textThree-time guest of the pod and "Australia's Ottessa Moshfegh" Paul Dalla Rosa joins me at my house for bento takeout while we discuss Natsuo Kirino's crime novel, Out.In this book, a woman murders her husband and her workmates at a bento factory become implicated in disposing of the body. From there, an incredibly disturbing story unfurls. It was a great read, suggested by Paul.We talk the drudgery of factory work, precarity, always thinking about money, the gruesome realities of disposing of a human body, erotics and death, violence, and much more.And over on the Patreon exclusive aftershow, Back Matter: we watch an episode of Iron Chef, eat mochi, and talk about our favourite culinary show while it's playing.
