Shhhhhh, this is my WEEKEND BONUS ROUND!!!!! Tonight, as rain fell on Los Angeles and I digested an entire tower of Salt & Vinegar Pringles (SPONSORSHIP PLEA), I decided to read you a hilarious piece by Jason Preu called "Billie Jean King." In it, he informs us of the devastating news that she is not Michael Jackson's lover.
Don't go around breaking young girls' hearts,

This is a one-off. I said I'll never have a guest on my podcast, but I changed my mind. My dad is my favorite person to have conversations with, and being with him and my mom the past two days made me so happy that I wanted to share a piece of it with you. I hope some of you like listening to us. And there's also ANNE CARSON!
I love you guys,
Robyn

“My imagination functions much better when I don't have to speak to people.” -Patricia Highsmith
SAME times a million.
Today, as rusty water drips on my head, I present to you two separate readings about how the earliest occupants of the Americas discovered the wheel, but only as a children's toy. Kids first I guess. Stay strong my friends. I love you very much.
Oh, and I heard your cries via the Podomatic "We Want More" button or whatever that is, so I'll be giving you an After Dark episode this week. I'm looking forward to it! I have so much I want to read you guys. Thank you so much for listening and caring. Let us proclaim the mystery of faith.
