Hello, I'm David Kern. I'm Heidi White. I'm Sarah Jane Bentley. And you are listening to Close

Reeds, a podcast for the Incurable Reader. We are here to discuss Marilynne Robinson's novel home.

We are drawing towards the end. So this is our penultimate episode. Well, not including the Q&A.

It's our penultimate episode, right? So next week, we will be concluding the book and then we'll answer your questions for those

of you who are listening.

Before we dive into the book that we need to shout out somebody, somebody who does not

get mentioned enough on this podcast and all of our podcasts.

And that is Logan Green because Logan is moving right now.

He was slept barely at all last night and he is still managing to master episodes of

podcasts for us.

And I feel like as someone who has just gone through a move who's just been doing that,

it's busy.

It's crazy trying to get your house ready to go on the market and all that sort of thing.

So I want to just say thank you to Logan for his hard work, for his dedication, and wish him

the best of luck selling his house. I think that's the stage that he's in if I recall correctly.

Wow. That's amazing. Shout out to Logan. We love you, Logan. You're amazing.

He makes it so these podcasts actually get to the listener.

Because we just sit on Zoom, press record, talk for a while, and then send him files. And then he does all the extra stuff to make it, to make it.

So it sounds okay in your earbuds, in your earbuds. Yeah. So Logan, thank you so much. Everybody should send Logan a message on Facebook or something like that and send him so many nice messages that it's embarrassing.

Perfect.

Okay.

Speaking of nice messages that are embarrassing, I think that's somehow a segue into this book.
