LIL #6: The Polo Player? (The Great Gatsby, Ch 4-6)

TWO DAYS LATE GO US. In our defense, we’re all disasters. Nevertheless, we are sorry for being late! So, here it is, our conversation about the first three chapters of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby (1925)! It was a good time and we can’t wait to cover chapters 4 through 6 next episode! Also, […]

LIL #5: Cooties (The Great Gatsby, Ch 1-3)

We’re real sorry this isn’t about Gatsby, that’ll be out next Monday! We battled finals, illness, and Spring Break.

Unfortunately, she can’t try one yet, they’re […]

LIL #4: Plums?! (This Is Just To Say, William Carlos Williams)

LIL #3: High Cinema (We Real Cool, Gwendolyn Brooks)

LIL #2: How Do Weed? (Tulips, Plath)

We mostly talked about Jorge Luis Borges and his story “The House of Asterion,” but as always, we got really distracted. Expect to hear tangents on Pokemon, a labyrinth in Kansas City, and Alaska, apparently? // Special thank you to Alex “Bones” Niederberger for the use of our theme song, “Lit is Lit is Lit.” […]

LIL #1: Beefcake (The House of Asterion, Borges)
