A sex and relationships episode! Finally! And....it's queer. Host Ellie Coburn is joined by her dear friend Reilee in an episode that is equal parts emotional, crude and comical. Growing up queer without queer sex represented in pop culture, figuring out when they were gay, queer sex, queer relationships, a speed round of would you rather and so much more. We think it goes without saying: family and elders and purity-minded listeners can sit this episode out. We love ya, but this one isn't for you.

This episode’s stories are St. Lucy's Home for Girls Raised by Wolves by Karen Russell and Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius by Jorge Luis Borges. (Warning: Borges’s name is mispronounced throughout the episode. Nate has been saddled with all the blame and he has been exiled to the underside of the flat earth as punishment.) We touch on a lot of stuff in this one from the cultural effects of schooling to the relationship between fiction and reality. Andrea shares her thoughts on N.K. Jemisin’s Broken Earth trilogy and Nate lists his favorite kinds of rolls.   Theme Music: 10 by HOME

Why do so many readers seem to be afraid of short stories? Annie and Chris chat with author and professor CJ Hauser about how short stories are different from novels, how to approach a collection, and why book clubs should embrace shorts.
