Remember way back when… Of course Malcolm and Gabe remember. Throughout the last few shows there has been much reminiscing, but also much taking too seriously, and during this show perhaps a little less. Post-punk? Grunge? Retro? Yay! Gabe is living in the 90’s, as are the people of Eugene where Twilight at the Lady Jane Grey College for Little Ladies was Recorded. “Thereby by the grace of God, go I.” For Book You! this week Gabe reads from Kurt Cobain’s favorite book, Perfume, by Jean-Baptiste Grenouille. Gabe almost fell through the earth in the 90’s. What about you? Both Malcolm and Gabe have enjoyed watching Friends recently just for its nostalgia factor (no cell phones), and are now convinced the 90’s saw a “renaissance of humor”, although honestly that’s nothing compared to other more notorious renaissances, of Harlem and Florence to name just two.
