Somebody That I Used to Know

Published: Sept. 15, 2021, 6 a.m.

This week, we're looking at change. How characters evolve, how they promise not to change and fail: our fiction, nonfiction, and pop culture picks point the way.

Also in this episode, Erin talks about channeling Cardi B, Amy plans Ziggy the Podcat's influencer future, and we engage with harem pants.

Listen to "Somebody That I Used to Know," the song from Gotye and Kimbra that inspired this week's theme.\xa0
