Oh, it’s Episode 8, the one where we don’t eviscerate Amy Hempel’s “In the Cemetery Where Al Jolson is Buried” (READ IT PEOPLE), and it’s tight. I mean mammy-TIGHT. LO-FI as fuck, but tight.

Photo by Jordan Schevene Episode Three coming to you hot and ready - smothered, covered, chunked, and topped - from the Waffle Houses of our minds. Here's the rub: We review a story by Deb Olin Unferth entitled "The First Full Thought of Her Life". This story first appeared in Tin House, which is a journal that Nick frequents. I've submitted there,…

Our second episode, currently known best as One of the Top Two Episodes of Wordsworthing, has us examining “You’ll Apologize If You Have To” by Ben Fowlkes, a story first published in Crazyhorse, a literary journal out of the College of Charleston. Ben, who likes mixed martial arts and birds, was probably really surprised about where his story was …
