Would you like it if we told you? If we told you about Napoleon? Would, would you like it?

On this episode we invite the poet Erin Marie Lynch, author of Removal Acts (Graywolf 2023), to debunk common misunderstandings about everyone's favorite short king. Or was he really a toxic tall?

We also get into the weeds with Amelia's favorite Gertrude Stein recording, Alexandria's inevitable conquering of The Great British Bake Off, ABBA, family hauntings, internet archives, the essential tenets of lawn care, Scientologist yoga studios, and billiards.
