Introvert’s Guide To The Good Life: What’s A Weekend?

WBEZ brings you fact-based news and information. Sign up for our newsletters to stay up to date on the stories that matter.

Today, we celebrate Fred Rogers’ birthday. But first we check in with Nerdette book club regular Heather Havrilesky, who writes the Ask Polly advice column for New York Magazine. And of course, we hear from a bunch of you, too, which is quickly becoming the best part of this show.

If you’d like to chime in, just tell us how you’re adapting, along with your name and where you’re from. You can record yourself on your phone and email the file to nerdettepodcast@gmail.com.

But hey, when we said Nerdette book club … were you confused? Maybe you didn’t you know we had a book club?

Well, once a month, we all read a book together and talk about it.

This month’s pick is The Glass Hotel by Emily St. John Mandel. It’s out Tuesday, March 24. Read it, then send us your thoughts (if you want), then listen to the book discussion on Friday, April 3. Can’t wait!
