In the grand tradition of this podcast we messed up the original "producer produced" version of this into, so we did it again using finger puppets and bits of string, without the ThesisWhisperer. (She would want us to say the sound quality is not her fault, which is true it isn't.)

Tune in to learn about why type is emotional, who is responsible for the jokes on the front cover, and the importance of cats to publishing deals. 

** Editors note: We misnamed our wonderful editor Gaynor throughout this episode – which makes it even more obvious how very important she was to the project. There's no way she would have let us make that mistake, we are very sorry Gaynor!
