Episode 8 - Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe

Our hosts Chris and Amy present their longest episode yet! This month, they've had the pleasure of reading and discussing Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, written by Benjamin Alire Sáenz. They laugh, they cry (seriously), and they make metaphors like it's their job! And it's all because of this excellent slice of life story, which centers around the budding friendship of two Mexican American teenagers in the 1980s and explores how their relationship inexplicably intertwines two families for the better. Of note, Chris has claimed that this may be his new favorite book to date. If you're curious as to why, you'll just have to listen. Thank you to Kevin MacLeod for the use of our theme song, 'Werq.'
