This was a great week at the New Yorker and on the pod.  Dan and Eric talk about: Amy Davidson Sorkin's excellent and unique piece about the Democratic debates; Dan Chiasson's insightful close reading of James Tate's most final collection of poetry; and a transcendent piece of fiction by playwright and novelist David Rabe.  A great episode, a celebration of literature.
