This week, we\u2019re re-recording the lost episode from two weeks ago, about Eula Biss\u2019 2020 book Having and Being Had. We discuss its main topics\u2014capitalism and class\u2014as well as whether it\u2019s a book-length essay and why or why not. Also: other books we\u2019re reading, a creaky chair, the hottest day in Oregon history, how much money we\u2019d cut our thumbs off for, and more!
