Chad and Brian cover a ton of topics in this relatively short episode including: Adam and Eve, botany, butterflies, the Wild West, enchantment, incest, codes, and\u00a0Bosom Buddies.\u00a0<\/em>It’s a fun episode filled with lyrical Nabokovian passages and speculation about what’s to come in this sprawling novel. And Isak, Brian’s daughter, jumps on a couple times to contribute. If you want to see a picture of “Eugene,” be sure and watch the YouTube edition<\/a>.<\/p>\n
