This week’s mini episode finds Prudence visited by Jaya Saxena, a staff writer at Eater. Her latest book, Crystal Clear, an essay collection about how humans assign meaning and power to objects, was published in December with Quirk Books.  Prudie and Saxena discuss a letter writer who’s wondering how to reignite her attraction to her husband, and another letter writer who wants to know how to get out of attending her family’s weekly, pandemic focused, video chats.
