With the pandemic rearing and the US teetering on fascism, how has that changed how you seek to entertain yourselves? What are you doing now that you weren't doing before the pandy? What were you doing before the pandy that you can no longer stomach now? This is somehow more than a recommendation show. It's also a reckoning of the things that no longer bring us joy with the things we're not ready to throw out. Eat Shit, Marie Kondo.

Join three friends as they make recommendations for books, music, film, television, social media, hobbies that can help our listeners make a great escape from real life.
