“At it again” indeed. Wendy, Shinjini, and Eric revisit the "Nausicaa" episode but not before Eric exorcizes a few Cyclopian ghosts. Wendy leads the episode and goes rogue by selecting the themes she loves and hates rather than the extracts. This leads to a passionate defense of Gerty MacDowell, a titillating discussion of female pleasure and fantasy, and the friends "getting angry at all the right things." Join them for an in-depth discussion of love and lurid literature that might just be a bit “cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo.”

Libations

Wendy - immune-boosting herbal infusion (that includes blackcurrants!)

Eric - Athena Paradiso, Berliner Weisse, German-Style Tart Wheat Ale with Fruit, specifically blackberries and black currants (his new favorite!), Creature Comforts, Athens, GA

Shinjini - green tea with a literary twist

Mentions - “Why you couldn’t eat something p5oetical like violets or roses”

• What in God’s name is a currant?
• Black currants and red currants? Now it’s just getting silly.
• Eccles Street - O.K., but what is an Eccles Cake?
