There's waist-high guano, out of body experiences, and the slaughter and consumption of an owl. Don't read it, just listen to us process the madness. Next month we're heading to something slightly closer to reality, Borderline by Mishell Baker. Have feedback for us? Did we hate...

One of us read this more than thirty years ago, when they were far too young. Can you guess which? Have feedback for...
