Morning, y’all! Yr pal al here, having big Groundhog Day deja vu — writing the newsletter and eating a hasselback potato, just like last Sunday night. New ritual unlocked.
Read to the end for the most cursed pair of jeans in existence.
It would rule if you’d forward this along to anyone who might dig our podcast. New episodes are out every Monday, plus Untethered minisodes on (most) Wednesdays, and we’re on all the podcast platforms like Apple Podcasts + Spotify + Castbox + Google Podcasts.
We have merch! Get yours here. We now have a hoodie! And a crewneck sweatshirt! Plus several tshirts, a unisex tank top, and a dad hat, each in a few colors. And a mug and a sticker.
If you have any feedback or ideas you want to hear us cover, or if you just want to say hi, you can reply to this email and it’ll come straight to us. We’re also on:
email + tiktok + youtube + twitter + instagram + facebook group + read with tether facebook group — next book is The Wager by David Grann. We’re aiming for late February to discuss it, exact date to come.

I haven’t made this recipe in years but I’m bringing it back this week. Sweet potatoes with black beans and lime crema? Yum.
Probably going to make these Caesar Brussels sprouts soon too.
I’m not a violent person but I may have to give an atomic wedgie to anyone I see in public wearing those Apple goggles.
Treasure trove of good Jeopardy clips.
Cursed jeans. The tweet said “imagine farting in these and the fog up.” You’re welcome.
Thanks for reading & listening!
