EP.26 Giving Narratives
FINALLY. WE RISE FROM THE GRAVE. Hey all. Sorry for the wait. One of us had to move house, and it really ballsed up our scheduling. Here’s an episode a day for the rest of the week to make up for it. First on the list is our chat about gift-giving narratives. We both love getting and giving presents, and we thought it was interesting to examine the way that we tell stories about what they mean. See below for books mentioned!
