Things kick off with Merlin's noisy electronic livestock and a frustrating health update from John. Whose family now hates him. In Follow-Up, Mr. Siracusa provides his son with a correction on The Novocaine Story, which leads to a digression into how John's dad writes text messages........ This ends up providing a great segue into the main topic: how memory breaks, and how we try to address it. Because, as you quickly realize, many memories involve other people who have—well—*different memories*. But, also, why did I go to the garage, because I'm pretty sure I went there for a reason. For this month's members-only bonus show, your hosts talk about artsy-fartsy video games like *Life is Strange* and *What Remains of Edith Finch* You can [sign up today](https://www.relay.fm/rd/join) to hear all the member episodes, get more bonus stuff, and, yes, support our program.
