Episode Notes

This week Steve and Dana are joined by co-host Laura Miller, books and culture columnist for Slate. First, the three of them talk to Slate’s own Matthew Dessem about what’s real and what’s made up in the new David Fincher movie, Mank. Then Julia Turner joins the show for a discussion about Spotify’s end-of-year “wrapped” feature. For the third segment, Laura talks about the best books of 2020.

In Slate Plus, Laura talks about a debate that keeps cropping up in literary circles about whether kids should be taught more contemporary literature.

Podcast production by Cameron Drews. Production assistance by Rachael Allen.

Outro music: “Ruins” by Origo
