About Damn Time

This week, we're channeling Lizzo, talking about books and pop culture with characters that have been through it (and come out stronger). Plus, the Broads talk annoyingly delayed outrage, rejections, squirrels, and the trouble with numbers. We're recording on a different day, and we're coming in HOT. Check out all current and past picks at our Bookshop.org store. Listen to "About Damn Time," the song from Lizzo that inspired this week's theme.
