Kool A.D. is the guest. His new novel OK is available now from Sorry House. 

In today's monologue, I talk about Kool A.D. and how he describes his own book. And I talk some more at the end of the show too. 

Sonya Chung is the guest. Her new novel The Loved Ones is available now from Relegation Books. It was the official October pick of The Nervous Breakdown Book Club.

In today's monologue, I talk about dystopia and Thanksgiving. 

Jade Chang is the guest. Her debut novel The Wangs vs. the World is available now from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt.

In today's monologue, I talk about going pro.

I'm not doing a regular show this week. It's the day after the election and I'm not feeling all that great. It seems wrong to do a show. The only thing on my mind is the election. I don't want a guest of mine to appear this week. It's not fair to the guest. I'll be back with a regular episode next week.

For now, and maybe against my better judgment, I'm gonna share my thoughts on what just happened to our country and the world. A little while ago I sat down and thought out loud and talked into the microphone. I tried to think as deeply as I could about what just happened and how best to respond. And I'm sharing it with you here. I hope that's okay. 

Michelle Tea is the guest. Her new novel, Black Wave, is available now from Feminist Press.

In today's monologue, I talk about Halloween.
