If you're sick of Alice's Restaurant, but looking for something captivating that lasts about 18 minutes this Thanksgiving, we've remixed a highlight from Episode 2, "When the Mine Roof Falls," read by the incomparable Colm O'Reilly.

We've succeeded as a podcast if you observe after listening, oh, no, no, they spent way too much time on this.

A short thread, for listeners new and old.
When we were 4 episodes in, the state of Israel began its current extermination campaign in the Gaza strip. Life was a struggle for many Gazans before this campaign, but it became a true nightmare thereafter, every day a new Guernica.

New listeners are cordially urged to start with Episode 1, and to skip an episode with the same peril as you would skip a fine dinner on an expense account.

Buen provecho!

The moral arc of this podcast bends toward you wondering if all is delirium and drift at Effigy HQ, or if we are Going Somewhere, or maybe both.
