This week on the MashReads Podcast, we read and discuss Michael Wolff's new book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House.And as always, we close the show with recommendations:
Peter recommends The Mighty Boosh, a BBC Three comedy. "It's just the weirdest and most surreal show, that's slightly problematic sometimes. All that said, though, it's a delightful show because it has my two favorite comedians: Rich Fulture and Matt Berry. It's fun. It's on Hulu.
Heather recommends The Liars Club by Mary Karr. "Mary Karr is perfect, she's never made a mistake much like Michael Wolff. This published this in '96 or '97, and it kicked off the era of memoir writing. This was like the original good memoir."
MJ recommends author Matt De La Peña's essay for Time "Why We Shouldn't Shield Children From Darkness." "The essay is just so movign about how we need to support children through darkness and the incredible, heartbreaking moments that he's expereicend when he's gotten to see a child expressing true emotion and grappling with that." He also recommends RnB singer Jessie Reyez. "Her songs just got me all up in my feelings."
