In the past, when reading a book has been suggested as something the hosts of the show could do to provide fodder for an episode's destruction, there was yelling and gnashing of teeth. But now, with James Gray's Cannes premiere finally having its theatrical run and making its way to the VOD market, we are finally to break through the long resistance to the written word, and pair it some required reading. That's right, we're pairing ARMAGEDDON TIME with some short stories from George Saunders' LIBERATION DAY, "The Mom of Bold Action," "Love Letter," and "Ghoul." We talk parallels, point of view, big performances, and more!
