The Necklace & The Gift of the Magi
In a post-Christmas haze, Scrapple and Penn reread classic short stories "The Necklace" by Guy de Maupassant and "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry. While there are similarities in these stories--couples, gifts, and a twist ending--the dynamic is very different. Listen in for some insight on gift giving, love, and some scandalous background on the authors.

The Subtle Knife: "For a human being, nothing comes naturally."
Join Penn and Rusty as they analyze book II in "His Dark Materials: The Subtle Knife" by Phillip Pullman. New characters like Will Parry and Dr. Mary Malone are introduced as they interact with old favorites like Lyra, Lee Scoresby, and Serafina Pekkala. As as aside, pardon our slight audio issues!
