This week on the pod Sarah has the unenviable task of explaining what a “tradwife influencer” is to the guys. We've got a cultural history of the people and ideas that inspired Yesteryear: Ballerina Farm, “The Hogfather”, ASMR sourdough, and cosplaying religious subservience for a right-wing project (it’s not great). Gasps are gusped, jaws are dropped, everyone is thoroughly creeped out— sometimes reality is truly stranger than science fiction. Then we dive into the first half of Yesteryear, the buzziest and the most unhinged book of the season. This book has everything: a sociopath protagonist, apparent time travel, a weaponized bear trap, a milk-drinking man-child. This episode is spoiler-lite; If you haven't read this one yet that's OK — we’ll save any big reveals and twists for part two.
