This week, it's a deep dive into a steaming mug of cawfee. Hot java. A cup of Joe. Black gold.

As a Cursed Objects bonus, without an actual cursed object, we present a live recording of Dan in conversation about his brand new book Multitudes: How Crowds Made the Modern World.

Is there actually any moral value to hard work?

Kasia and Dan are earning their lunch. And it’s a big, steaming bowl of cuteness!
