TMR 22.7: “@CheapIllegalPeopleSmuggler” [Praiseworthy]

Talk of Australian cartoons—and not just Bluey—morphs into a look at several specific passages in Wright’s Praiseworthy, discussion what makes the book “difficult” to read, the style of humor, what pushes us away from the text and then re-grabs out attention, and much more.

This week’s music is “Frontier Psychiatrist” from The Avalanches.

You can find all previous seasons of TMR on our YouTube channel and you can support us at Patreon and get bonus content before anyone else, along with other rewards, the opportunity to easily communicate with the hosts, etc. And please subcribe and rate us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Tune in next week for more banter and analysis live on YouTube where we will be covering pages 463-525. (Up to chapter 5 in “Cargo Shifter.”)

Follow Open Letter, Two Month ReviewChad Post, Kaija Straumanis, and Brian Wood for random thoughts and information about upcoming guests.
