Summary

This week Kelly and Katai read DRIVER'S DEAD by Peter Lerangis, the story of a girl looking to free the spirit of the dead boy who used to live in her room by returning a piece of jewelry. They discuss unexpected crying, delicately handled racism, being nervous about how a white dude is about to write about a Vietnamese dude, the super fun racism Kelly's had to deal with, gush about Deadwood for a long time, magic murder car fliers, and unpack the likelihood of whether Virgil would know what a revenant is.
