In today’s episode I am talking to the hilarious Will McPhail whose cartoons are frequently published in The New Yorker. He wrote an incredibly beautiful graphic novel called IN about a twenty something guy called Nick who the girlies on TikTok would call emotionally unavailable but who is desperately trying to change, trying to connect. 

He‘s amassed a huge following on instagram, @willmcphail4 where he shares his insightful observations about the human condition and his obsession with key lime pie. 


Things that were mentioned:

- Key Lime Pie

- IN by Will McPhail

- Pleasantville (1998)

- Dune (1984)

- Things That Are Different Now by Sophia Hembeck
