Forty episodes into Comic Sans feels like the right time for our hosts to reexamine their friendship under a new light — specifically, under the technicolor lights of "A Map to the Sun" by Sloane Leong. As the yellow waves crash against the purple shore, Yan and Nat solemnly renew their friends-forever pinky promise: to keep on making the show, to always show up for each other, and to take every opportunity to show each other up.

In this episode, Nat reads pages 1–60 and 153–204.
