Hi, everyone. This is the Culture Study podcast, special bonus edition. And I'm Ann Helen Peterson.

And I'm Margaret H. Willison, Culture Studies new librarian. Okay, so this is a great way for us to

introduce you today. You've been on the pod before, obviously, anyone who listened to our last bonus

pod, all about Wuthering Heights,

Margaret was our special guest. And it got us thinking about something that I wanted to do for a long

time and that there is a whole newsletter and introduction to that should have landed in your

inboxes this morning. And that is bring Margaret on as a more regular contributor, participant, leader,

and librarian in the community.

And she's going to be doing a lot of different things as part of culture study.

Again, all of them laid out in the newsletter this morning.

But she is also going to be our consistent guest

host for the now officially monthly bonus pod.

Yeah.

And we always want your ideas for future bonus pods, so please send them in.

You can use the normal submission form, but we just kind of willy-nilly come up with ones that

we want to talk about, so please give us your suggestions. I'm delighted to be here to be the newest subscriber perk for those

wise enough to be paying subscribers for Culture Study.

Exactly. This special episode is going to be part of a larger series, intermittent series that we call like sort of late to the party.

And what we mean sort of late to the cultural party.

What we mean by this is that like it is not our task to publish pieces talking about a show like the day that the last episode comes out.

Like that is not, we do not watch screeners.

We are not on top of our shit in that capacity.
