I'm reading a great book right now. One of my favorite comedians and people and just one of the coolest people to hang out with, just absolutely hilarious, Mary Lynn Ricegum wrote a book, Famish.

And I just knew she like she's funny and she's unique I bet this is going to be fucking good and I picked it up and like I can't put the thing down.

Uh she just has all of these hilarious stories about just being shut down emotionally and getting involved in relationships professionally and personally that just are not working for her and it's just I don't want to ruin the book but it's absolutely like it's fucking hilarious.

It's a great book if you get a chance it just came out giving it a shout out here on the podcast.

I recommend Wilmington's Lie, The Insurrection of 1892 and the Rise of White Supremacy and Mary Lynn Ricecup Famish.

Oprah Winfrey has a book club so do I. I recommend Wilmington's Lie: The Insurrection of 1892 and the Rise of White Supremacy and Mary Lynn Ricecup, Famish.
