It's hard to find new things to say about The Stranger. Occupying a space of historical importance in literature, philosophy, and youth culture across three continents and ultimately around the world, The Stranger is enduringly popular (especially so among people who lack the self awareness to consider whether their opinions are worth sharing).

It's no wonder that this episode came out to a little over two hours. We attempt to be thorough in our discussion of the book and open with our reactions. This was a conversation between someone reading for the first time and someone who had the enviable pleasure of reading it as a teenager. It made for a pleasant evening to discuss the book and hopefully it will be an equally pleasant experience listening to our thoughts (they are very deep because of how Authentic and Existential we are).
