Hey, it's Stephen Dubner.

Our new book is out, Think Like A Freak, and we want to talk about it with you.

So we are forming the Think Like A Freak Book Club.

Has it worked?

You send in your questions about the book, and we will answer them on this podcast.

There are nine chapters in the book, so why don't we do the first installment of our

book club with chapters 1, 2, and 3?

Those are what does it mean to think like a freak, the three hardest words in the English

language, and what's your problem?

Just send your questions to radioatfreakonomics.com with the subject line book club, and if we

choose your question for the podcast, we will send you a signed copy of Think Like A Freak

or a limited edition Think Like A Freak t-shirt.

Thanks.

Hey, Levit, can I read you a story?

At the beach.

They swim, eat some ice cream, play in the sand, and have some sandwiches for lunch.
