Towards Thee I Roll: Four Friends Read Moby-Dick Episode 9: Pro-Pipeline, Anti-Whaling
Have you ever wondered why they call them tube socks? Have you been listening to us talk about Moby Dick and thought ‘hmm, I wonder what they think about the whaling industry’? Well, good news.
In this, episode 9 of critically-acclaimed podcast Towards Thee I Roll, we finally take a stance – to build more pipelines. But for whales!
We also talk about Tim Horton’s, soil triangles, how being alone and looking out at The Ocean can benefit your mental health (citation needed), our opinions on naps (controversial), and what a ‘hornpipe’ is. We also discuss whale extinction and how to prevent it – perhaps with a new Netflix show? Unless…?
What else. I think we talked about some tweets. Oh, we also talked about podcasting in real life. I don’t think we talked about baseball yet, I think that’s next episode. And then we definitely talked about chapters 34-36, that’s for sure.
Alright, it’s Saturday night as I’m typing this and Latt and Dibbs are talking about merch ideas in our group chat so I'm gonna head out because this likely won’t end well. Happy listening! 🙂
Chapters covered: 34. The Cabin-Table to 36. The Quarter-Deck
