Jay and Emma ride around the beautiful landscapes of Hiroshima to talk about 38-page Murakami short story Drive My Car and its 3 hour long film adaptation of the same name. Listen along as they dive into multilingual storytelling, realize they missed some of the assigned readings, and accept that sometimes adding things in an adaptation rules.
Content warnings for Drive My Car include: sexual assault, death of a loved one, death of a child, brief mention of pedophilia, child abuse, and Anton Chekhov.
