A Caramel Apple Bobbing in Furmity (Thomas Hardy‘s The Mayor of Casterbridge + Red Hot Riplets Caramel Apple)

The boys finish up their cycle "Lonely Women in Your Area" with Thomas Hardy's The Mayor of Casterbridge, a book that is in some ways the anti-Middlemarch. They talk fate, chance, and impulse in regard to protagonist Michael Henchard's downfall. Also on tap: a discussion of Roman history and the ways the past continues to haunt us.

Then, in the bonus Postmodern Food Factory, they tackle their toughest test yet: not gagging on caramel apples that have been coated in peanuts dusted with Red Hot Riplets seasoning. It's gross!
