Cooley and Herrick dive right into sexual politics as they discuss this coded conversation between two lovers and wonder when exactly doctors started telling pregnant ladies to ease off the booze! In a nod to the Ebro setting, they drink Kalimotxos, a uniquely Basque cocktail that combines equal parts red wine and Coke-- weirdly wonderful, especially with a squeeze of lime. So pour yourself this simple concoction, listen along, and reflect on why this tortured story dialogue feels somehow familiar.
