    Jenny Slate (SNL, Obvious Child, Marcel the Shell with Shoes On) reads Lena Dunham’s Erotic Male Jewish Comedian Fan Fiction. We also catch up with the legendary undercover NYPD whistleblower Frank Serpico (played by Al Pacino in the classic 1973 biopic) and Sarah Vowell offers a new definition of “the fog of war.”

    Produced by Jenny Ament and Jenna Weiss-Berman.
