Episode: Episode 2: They'd Rather Be Right by Mark Clifton
Description: Trigger Warning: Very brief discussion on the main character’s suicidal thoughts.
Another fortnight, another terrible book! Join Anna and Em as they discuss Mary-Sue telepaths, cow terminology, the best way to convince people that you have psychic abilities (hint: it’s not forcing people to throw up.

P.S. If anyone knows anything about that Scientology conspiracy, get in touch.
