EP49: Labor Day with the Governor of Maine and Zadie Smith
Manage episode 376263156 series 3005408
Okay, so we don't actually, like, have Governor Janet Mills on the pod, but Sam's reading the book that just came out with her letters and journal from the first year of the pandemic, "In Other Words, Leadership," and she hangs out near us in the summer, so that's close enough. Is she the biggest hippy of any governor in the U.S.? Also, we've got our hands on the new Zadie Smith and it's ... something. Meanwhile, Hannah's a little grumpy about the coffee situation (black tea is not cutting it), but has been reading the new story of women in the Civil War, "Night Watch," which she loves (despite its voicey voice; not the Terry Pratchett novel). Plus, she's all about the new "Dayswork," which is written by a couple about a couple researching literary couples. Very meta. Perhaps the most cohesive episode we've ever done, though we didn't plan it that way.
