Friends, a sea change has befallen Whiskey Jenny in this plague year. Not to spoil the thing I find out on air this episode, but Whiskey Jenny has made a shift! a change! from being a determined non-DNFer to DNFing books left and right. In but the last few days prior to recording this episode, she DNFed two entire books! I didn’t even know this when I proposed this topic, but needles to say I’m thrilled about it. I think everyone should abandon books they’re not enjoying. You’d all find it so cleansing! We chat about that, get a polar explorer update that really underlines how little we know about the sea, and review Uzma Jalaluddin’s new novel Hana Khan Carries On. You can listen to the podcast in the embedded player below, or download it directly to take with you on the go!
