Weekly Roundup: “West with Giraffes,” “Life’s Work,” and Iffy Etiquette

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.Catherine's library find is a Lucky Day pick called West with Giraffes by Lynda Rutledge. It's based-on-a-true-story historical fiction, which is right up her alley, and maybe yours too. Mentioned: The audiobook version, the history of the San Diego Zoo (toward which the giraffes of the title are traveling).​Terri's random recommendation is an audiobook enhanced by its narrator's performance: Life's Work by TV creator David Milch (of John from Cincinnati, NYPD Blue, Deadwood, and others), narrated by Michael Harney. Mentioned: Butler by Salena Zito, audiobooks narrated by Simon Jones of The Gilded Age.​In the archives, we checked in on an episode from 2019 on iffy etiquette.Next week's lineup: Lost S3 E9, "Stranger in a Strange Land," on Tuesday, July 29The Gilded Age S3 E1, "What the Papers Say," on Wednesday, July 30Weekly roundup on Thursday, July 31Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.This episode was recorded before a live studio audience ... of dogs.
