Ep 642 - Last Night at the Telegraph Club, by Malinda Lo
Lo's award-winning novel seeks to shine a light on marginalized experiences from mid-century San Francisco. What's most impressive is how she's synthesized all of her research into a couple of fresh, compelling characters - allowing the story to honor the historical record without feeling overly bound by it.
Our theme music was composed by Nick Lerangis.

Always a great listen
Very enjoyable podcast! I especially like the milestone episodes where both read the book - also possibly due to the fact that they lovingly trash these lovable (or not, *cough* 50 shades *cough*) books.
If your having a bad day listen to overdue
Very funny guys to listen to, if you’re having a bad day, they will cheer you up!
