Weekend Whats

What to Book: Culpability by Bruce Holsinger is novel that uses a family saga to “explore a world newly shaped by chatbots, autonomous cars, drones, and other nonhuman forces in ways that are thrilling, challenging, and unimaginably provocative.”

+ What to Nonfiction: At the end of every Ezra Klein show, the guest is apparently asked: “What are three books you’d recommend to the audience?” The excellent Michael Sippey (an old school blogger type like yours truly) made a cool, simple site that lists all of those (mostly nonfiction) books as they’re mentioned. Check out 3Books.net.

+ What to Watch: “From the creator of ‘BoJack Horseman’ comes this animated comedy about a family over time, following siblings from childhood to adulthood and back again.” Long Story Short. The first episode is called Yoshi’s Bar Mitzvah, and the Jewish themes, that will be very recognizable to many, continue from there.
