Big Book Club's "oh Boy, Tolstoy!"

This week, half of Arlington is on vacation, so Jennie and Pete set sail on their own. The two cover chapters 87-101, discussing the unpleasant topics (racism, whale slaughter) and the absurd (Stubb's nose, the ineptness of whale ship captains.) And with no co-hosts, there's no one to stop them from making references to The Simpsons but also no one to correct Pete when he calls whale bone "ivory" repeatedly.  Get Well Soon by Jennifer Wright Palate cleansers -  Jennie - Derry Girls on Netflix Lore Olympus Pete - The Terror on Hulu (though based on a book)
