Alan Opts Out👍 Recommends
…book recommendation from chris hayes at end of episode
“And the last one is a new novel that I just am about halfway through through someone else that I know, Courtney Mom, called Alan Ops Out, which is a great kind of really insightful, searing, comedic look at a Greenwich advertising executive who goes to live in the playhouse in his backyard.”

The Godfather👍 Recommends
…book recommendation from chris hayes at end of episode
“I recently read and I can't believe I had never read this book, but I read The Godfather, the original novel by Mario Puso. It's a combination of some really weird and truly awfully misogynistic stuff. But it is incredible how good that book is in some ways. And also it kind of makes you understand why the movie is a masterpiece. Like I didn't quite realize how faithful the movie was to the original source material.”

Transcription👍 Recommends
…book recommendation from chris hayes at end of episode
“I read and loved Ben Lerner's newest transcription. I will say as someone who went to Brown and he was in my class there and I just went to my 25th reunion with Kate, who I met there. It had a particular potency for me that may not have to the general audience.”
