Summary

Crank the twee-meter up to Wes Anderson—we’re playing house with Cobble Hill’s eensiest weensiest comedienne, Jenny Slate, and her absurdist memoir “Little Weirds.” Magical realism meets Freshman year personal essay in this Dickinsonian teacup of cuteness, as the self-described “rabbit” unloads her colonial Massachusetts sexual anxieties and processes Trump’s election via poetic non-fiction about being small. From quiet trips to Scandinavia to being afraid to order wine, this ep will have you shushing every femme in the library. Squeak!

PLUS! In the VIP Lounge this Friday—commemorative White House ornaments, lesbian tarot card readers, and a plot twist on Nantucket. Subscribe at http://patreon.com/cbcthepod
