Weekly Roundup: “Fish Farts,” Audiobrary, and Free-Time Activities

About this episode

​Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.

Catherine's library find this week is another kids' nonfiction book that relies on a scatological title to grab the attention of reluctant readers (see also: Butt or Face?). This one's called Fish Farts: And Other Amazing Ways Animals Adapt by Joanne Settel.

Terri's random recommendation is a new venture from actor, author, and audiobook narrator Julia Whelan. It's called Audiobrary, and we'll be interested to see how it does as it takes on Audible.

In the archives, we checked in on free-time activities for adults, first discussed in 2021.

Next week's lineup: 
  • A Gentleman in Moscow E6, "The Fall," on Tuesday, August 13
  • Lost S1 E6, "House of the Rising Sun," on Wednesday, August 14
  • Weekly roundup on Thursday, August 15

Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
