\u2018Thirst In The Covid-19 Era\u2019 could well be the title of this episode or an academic paper in the year 2050 \u2014 but we\u2019re not doing that! No, we decided to dip into our inbox to take on some of the burning thirst queries from our wonderful listeners. It was a mailbag of\u2026 many tastes. Drabbles about musicians Raphael Saadiq and Hozier, Large Boy Adam Driver, and Lee Pace on a farm? Plus we did our best to provide alternative thirsts in a bumper Thirst Sommelier segment that covered tastes as diverse as Magnum PI and 90s era Ralph Fiennes. YOU\u2019RE WELCOME.\nSlate Plus members get a bonus segment on Thirst Aid Kit each week.\xa0Sign up now\xa0to listen and support our show.\nIn this week\u2019s Slate Plus segment, we break down A Clean Plate, that is the significance of a man\u2019s appetite in popular culture. From Cool Hand Luke to Phantom Thread, what does a man\u2019s hunger tell us, if anything, about the type of person he is?\nFollow us on Twitter @ThirstAidKit. Our music is by Tanya Morgan.
