On the first day of Summer, your podcast brings to thee: a contrived premise for an overdue episode. Would like to say the wait was worth it for an in-depth discussion of Hilary Mantel's award winning novel 'Wolf Hall,' but nope! Instead you'll have to make due with more general ruminations on the historical fiction genre, some recommendations in the manga and sci-fi romance categories, and an eager anticipation for the summer's full potential now that we're almost finished with education seminars / blockbuster videogames.
