Chad and Brian break down the loss of Duncan Thaw’s mother, his entrance into art school, his reasons for creating art, religious imagery throughout the book, fathers who are better than Bandit, mispronounciations, the “engine” that drive the two distinct parts of this novel, and much more.
This week’s music is “It’s All Gonna Break” by Broken Social Scene.
