The Atlantic's Adam Serwer takes a break from cogent political analysis to talk about his most loyal co-workers, The Garfields—Butters, Burns, Eggsy, and Benne. Then we put his love of Italian food and felines to the test in the Cat Quiz, where Mary definitely pronounces some things incorrectly! Plus: a serious debate about cats on surfaces. Finally, we get the lowdown on Adam’s international cat acquisition strategy, how cats help when your job involves staring into the abyss, and what the last pure things on the internet are. Also! Helpful tips for cat tourism in Rome. For more about this episode and a complete transcript, visit our website! Socialize with us on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook! Sign up for our newsletter!
