Hey, everyone, we love a book with a moral. The moral of the great Gatsby is, if your mistress

runs over your mistress's husband's mistress, and your mistress's husband thinks you did it,

you should learn to catch bullets. It's by Francis S. Fitzgerald. I'm Kellynne Erskine. I'm a comic,

a father, and I'm glad I didn't fight in World War I, not because of the carnage, but so that I was able to avoid coming back and living a lavish life in a mansion and never being truly happy.

The Great Gatsby asks, can a marriage survive double adultery?

Yes, if at the end of the story, everyone you cheated with is dead.

And this is the book pile. Cameron J. Conrad says, this is one of my favorite podcasts to listen to it. Well, if you know that Cameron, then you also know

I'm mostly curious what compliment you would take unambiguously. That's what you're still on.

I guess what I need to hear is,

You don't want them seeing other podcasts ever.

You're offended that they even used to. All right. And if you want to see me live, I'm going to be in Carlsbad,

California, October 29th at Nerd Comedy Night. Go to Kellanerskin.com for tickets. I'm still just doing

my regular act. That's just the name

of the show that the guy puts on. Dave will be there. Finally, our next two books are I Will Teach

You to Be Rich and Frankenstein. All right. And without further ado, we dive into another episode from the high school

required reading list. Here are four lessons that we took from the great Gatsby.

Lesson one. If you write honestly about emotions and people, it's more likely to endure.
