Slaughterhouse-Five - Kurt Vonnegut - Episode 88

The Buddies are going back to school reading popular high school novel, Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut. Things haven’t changed much since high school for the Buddies as they struggled to interpret the true meaning of the novel. The satirical anti-war book did provide the buddies some good talking points,  namely: how being negative is a good thing, how life is easier when you’re hung like a horse, and the benefits of being a POW. So re-visit your high school reading assignments, pick up Slaughterhouse-Five and tell us what you think of the novel (or tell us what we were supposed to think).Intro (0:00-2:49)Stock Up/Down (2:50-26:16)Favorite Scene/Character (26:17-28:49)Love/Hate (28:50-34:33)Lingering Questions/Listener Email (34:34-36:39)Casting the Movie (36:40-37:20)Conclusion (37:21-39:16) NEXT BOOK: The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin
