Show Notes: S04, E06 - How to Be a Grown Up
This week, we prove right out of the gate that we will solve literally ANY problem you send us... and for that, we can only apologise. But to make it up to you, we're helping you all grow up with Goosebumps, Daniel Day Lewis, and a DOUBLE BILL of Liam's Country Corner.
Here's all the art we recommended.
(Art we only mentioned in passing, and never intended as a problem-solving recommendation, is in italics.)
Underlined items are this week's top picks from each of our presenters. If you're only going to try one of the pieces of art we mentioned, try these ones first.
