The Wonderful Wizard of Oz audiobook!
Guess what? We made an audiobook for you. Something about telling the tales of George Michael and Britney Spears made me think about this tale of another kid in the big city. I loved recording an audiobook of A Christmas Carol for you last December, and this was a delight as well. This book is at least 25 times stranger than I remembered, and in the best way. Fandom theories and queer theory reads are very welcome below.

Customer Reviews
Sarah Marshall is an icon
Having access to Sarah Marshall’s thoughts and opinions is an experience to be savored. I think about the way she phrases things for months on end. She is so brilliant, unendingly empathetic, and has an incredibly ability to convey complicated analyses with humanity and humor. It is a joy to listen to her.
Mission drift
The show has gotten progressively worse over the years. Started out with a very clear mission and random errors every now and then. I expected it to get worse after Michael left but man, it’s just bad now. Just checked back and I see the phone episode, with a celebrity pushing an unnuanced opinion that happens to personally benefit her, along with Sarah brushing all the actual research and empirical data under the rug. The phrase “moral panic” now seems to be the label that really means “anything Sarah disagrees with” and is a way of arguing against something people believe without actually, y’know, engaging with the facts of the issue and making a coherent argument.
When You’re Wrong About
is really, really, really wrong about something and deletes critical reviews.. you unsubscribe.
Sorry, not sorry, but the “Phones” episode is absolute trash. Did you do any research at all? The science is very, very, very clear about the damage devices/phones/screens/apps (and capitalism) do to us ALL and ESPECIALLY to brains still developing. Weird how you failed to mention any of that.
