There were flies in my basement, which is gross and I didn't want to record anything. So I've included two short stories that I had pre-recorded for the 'Cultured Bumpkin' podcast: 'The Quarrel Between the Dogs and the Cats and Between the Cats and the Mice' by Jean de La Fontaine And 'My Financial Career' by Stephen Leacock --- Be sure to listen to the 'Cultured Bumpkin' on iTunes or wherever you...

I read one story about a boy with a deadly imaginary friend- and another about a tiny, vengeful God.

You know what's weird? Waking up as a giant beetle, and not being so grossed out that you don't stop worrying about getting to work. You know what's weirder? Your boss showing up at your house to see if you're faking sick. Enjoy.

The chapter is only 3 pages, and serves to let you know how badly their revolution failed - and hints that poor Avis is captured as she stops mid-sentence. Finally DONE!

Ernest is BACK! And creepier than ever as he takes Avis's unconscious body up to the roof of the hospital to romantically watch an air balloon battle. We're almost done people. We're almost done...

Avis is a mole now- and instead of worrying about her own self, she spends all her time wondering what Ernest is up to. The battle in Chicago has been found out- so Avis and some guy named "Hartman" head there to try to help. There's a lot of racist name-calling of the train's staff. Oh, the classics... And street urchins seem to have psychic knowledge of when battles are about to happen. Enjoy. T...

Ugh- Ernest makes Avis pretend to be his sister when they travel… He’s going too far with his kink. We also learn that basically nothing has changed with society since chapter 1. Great.

Avis does such a good job playing into her husbands fetish that he doesn't even recognize her. They capture a rich man's son and brainwash him only to have him die of Pneumonia when they release him.

We find out that Avis has to dress up and act like another woman because Ernest has a fetish. ’Frisco Reds isn’t a baseball team- they’re murderous anarchists.

Avis and Ernest are in prison- but that doesn't stop all the texting. There is page, after page of description of the mountain. And we end with Avis sleeping in a hole. Genius.

Labor unions have nice homes, good schools, wide lawns... and guns. Also, Jack London gets a little racist on asians and Florida is called a 'waste-place' where Native Americans pray to their gods.

This episode isn't worth listening to. Ernest just goes off on another tangent for the millionth time. We learn that Being in a union isn't a 'seat in paradise'. Which was weird. Oligarchs love art! That was surprising. And that they will build 'wonder cities'. Which doesn't seem so bad.

We get an economics lesson. But not from Ernest this time- it's just the author flat-out telling us directly at this point. There's a war between the US and Germany, and the socialists 'kinda' helped.
