My main critiques come from aspects that I'm not really sure can be helped. For one, a lot of jokes/silly comparisons/what have you are repeated multiple times throughout the book, which made me a bit tired of the "(whoever) wouldn't do (a specific thing) if they had (a specific weapon) to their head" (for now). Along with that, maybe it's just because I'm a midwesterner, but I was kind of appalled at how short the trip to the Midwest was.

Yeah, idk, it was good. Interesting. If you like "micro histories" you'll like this. If you're vegan you will either love this or hate it. You'll definitely like it if you like podcasts. Being narrated by the author makes the audiobook even better!
