Stories for Kate Episode 3: Not quite Persuasion, but the best company
<div>We didn't quite manage to chat at length about <em>Persuasion</em> as we had planned, but we definitely shared a few stories for Kate! Original grapes Eily, Jen, Yazmin, and Eileen were back, but a few of Kate's favorite Lowellians also joined us: Tina, Ona, Ned, and Howard! We gave Howard a bit of grief for not having seen us in so long (and we gave him a lot more grief for his freakishly youthful Dorian Gray self). <br/>We shared tales of Mass Hall and Lowell House and freshman expos and sophomore tutorial and water polo and lemon chicken and Howard almost burning down Lowell House (I totally forgot that).<br/>To quote from the assigned reading that we didn't quite get to:<br/>'<em>My idea of good company is the company of clever, well-informed people, who have a great deal of conversation; that is what I call good company.'<br/>'You are mistaken,' said he gently, 'that is not good company, that is the best.' <br/></em><br/></div><p>Thanks for listening!

#ReadingTheStone Season 3 - Stories For Kate Episode 2: Valley Girl, like totally
<p>The grapes return for another episode of '<b>Stories for Kate.</b>' This time we do a deep dive into Martha Coolidge's 1983 indie classic <em>Valley Girl</em>, starring a young Deborah Foreman and Nicholas Cage. We talked about aspects of the film that we still love (eileen: still the way NC kisses, swoon; Jen: the storytelling; Yaz: the character of Julie), and aspects that make us cringe now; and, a surprising revelation from Eily. Plus the music! the music! Still one of my all-time favorite soundtracks, from The Plimsouls to Modern English to Josie Cotton to Psychedelic Furs.<br/><br/>Listen to the end for some bonus Kate love life content!</p><p>Thanks for listening!
