Essex 'splains
Welcome to the Essex 'splains podcast where Erin the Musical Muse and Essex the Artist Analyst review and analyze stories to help you overcome your false beliefs and live your happily ever after.
We believe stories are not just for entertainment, but for teaching us, through characterization, how to make better choices. And since economics is the study of choice, who better than a writer and economic analyst to evaluate how choice architecture in story can be applied to the real world.
If you love stories, want to make better life choices, or just want to see what you're looking at...welcome friend. You've come to the write place.

Ep51 - Empire of Silence: Hush Hush
We analyzed a book this time! Erin and I are reading the Sun Eater series by Christopher Ruocchio (good luck finding the accurate pronounciation of his name). We really like a lot of things about the series, but it's not for the faint of heart...
Spoilers for Empire of Silence. Do I need to keep saying spoilers? I spoil everything. But I feel like it's polite. Like knocking before you enter someone's house before trashing the place.
