This episode was recorded in front of the Round Table of Wabash, bringing a little extra energy—and a lot of literary legacy—to the conversation. *Game Time: Would You Rather? Rachel wraps things up by putting Laura through a rapid-fire round of bookish “Would You Rather?” questions. The answers? Occasionally unhinged. Always entertaining. *Join the Conversation What book has sparked the best discussion in your group? Let us know—we’re always looking for more titles to add to the list.
