The final entry in Best Adapted Podcast's Jane Austen miniseries. Whit Stillman, the poet laureate of the Upper East Side, emerged from semiretirement in 2016 to breathe new life into Jane Austen's little known novella Lady Susan.

Joined by Austen superfan Jamie Herman, the Frank and Caleb discuss epistolary novels, advanced agricultural techniques, and which of the 12 Commandments is their favorite.
