A NOTE FROM GRETA & ANNA

Hey Buddy! Hope you’re hanging in and taking care.

Emi Yagi’s Diary of a Void is a delightfully weird meditation on pregnancy, time, and societal expectations.
Do you know someone who might love the idea of a wine-filled advent calendar? Because … it exists.
I love Beth Ditto, and I can’t wait to watch her in Monarch!

And here are some things that are making Anna, our producer, happy this week:

The new album Natural Brown Prom Queen from the one-woman, pop, hip-hop band Sudan Archives is stunning.
This corn butter farro from Smitten Kitchen reminds me of my grandmother’s cooking in the best way. It is ideal comfort food.
SO MANY RACCOONS AND JUST ONE MAN!

Talk to you next week,
