This is not the first episode that hosts Connor Stratton and Jack Rossiter-Munley had planned. In light of the election results on Tuesday, they scrapped their pre-recorded show (tune in on Friday 11/25 for their discussion of "Urban Renewal" by Yousef Komunyakaa) in favor of the conversation they had last night. In this honest discussion, they explore how they are dealing with the aftermath of the election, and what literary touchstones they have reached out to for strength and understanding. Episodes of this podcast will usually focus on one work and run about 20-30 minutes. This episode covers multiple pieces and is almost an hour long.
