Does Mrs. Banks have a first name? And what the heck's a "matchman" anyhow? Can and should you absolutely still be shopping at Booksmith on its website booksmith.com and enjoying free shipping in San Francisco? Join us to find out. Stories from Maggie Tokuda-Hall and Joe Wadlington (as Jeananne Tonic), Amanda Rosenberg, Molly Sanchez, Michael Howley, Kirstie Haruta, and Alan Leggitt. Stories read by Baruch Porras-Hernandez.

Stories performed by Baruch Porras-Hernandez. Ballot art by Katie Morton.
