In this little bonus episode, we'll listen to a reading of Ambrose Bierce's short story "The Difficulty of Crossing a Field." It's about a mysterious disappearance, so it might fit well with the month we're in now. Also, according to Ancient Aliens proponents, this work is one of the best examples of alien abduction in American literature.
So pull up a chair, get cozy, and we will have Dizzy tell us a story. Then we will attempt a small literary analysis of Ambrose Bierce.
The outro music is written and performed by a band called Trallskruv, and you should check them out.
