Another episode-length discussion of a single novel we've deemed worthy of extra attention! This time around, the lads discuss an American classic neither of us were at all familiar with, Joseph Heller's world-famous debut novel Catch-22. We share our own personal impressions, talk about the impact it has had on the culture, compare and contrast it to other war novels, and debate whether or not it deserves a #7 ranking (!) on the Modern Library "Top 100 Novels of All Time" list.

**We apologize for a few audio gaps that appear in this episode. As we're recording, we aren't sure whether any/all the glitches we hear are going to appear in the final output. There's really nothing we can do about them as they are a glitch in the app we are using. We hope it is not too much of a distraction.**
