All in Good Storytime is an interactive, bookish, book club podcast hosted by Alanna, Katya, and Tia.

Read along!
In the eighth episode of All in Good Storytime, we discuss episodes five through eight of The Eccentric Family. We discuss the events that led up to the death of the father of the Shimogamo family, recap a dinner with the Friday Fellows, have a deep conversation about what it means to eat what you love, and discover why Yaijiro is stuck as a frog. Finally, we rant about how casually some tanuki accept their death and how uncaring humans are about the sentience of the tanuki they eat, and learn that tanuki are real creatures that ride the train in Kyoto.
