Katie Whittemore joins on this episode to refute a list of crazy fan theories about��Four by Four,��and to talk about the difficulties of translating a book in which there’s really no where to hide. Chad also shares some new, bad, jacket copy, and makes a pitch for one of Katie’s next books to come out:��World’s Best Mother��by Nuria Labari. Very fun, loose, enjoyable episode putting to bed a book that is, ultimately, quite unnerving.

This week’s musical four-by-four reference is from Malibu Ken in his appropriately creepy “Acid King.”
