Show Notes: S05, E09 - Am I Ready for a Goldfish?
It's the series 5 finale, and we're closing out in style, with a pop quiz, a game show, 3 problems solved, and more book, film and music recommendations than you can shake a stick or a carrot at. From Studio Ghibli to Kate Bush, we've got it all.
Here's all the art we recommended.
(Art we only mentioned in passing, and never intended as a problem-solving recommendation, is in italics.)
