[And now you can too](https://www.tickettailor.com/events/child/1153168). This play is an encyclopedic novel, it is a department store in the jungle, it is Dada’s afterbirth with talented singers. You will want to have been there. You will not like being there. I will be there March 9, 7pm.

∞. How To Have Become a Girl

A rare beauty on the internet is a thing which updates only when it needs to. Not just [once per month](http://radar.spacebar.org) or [once per year](https://blart.libsyn.com), but once per season of life. Part of the joy of having listened to the series series [How To Be A Girl](http://www.howtobeagirlpodcast.com) is experiencing it go from nearly weekly, to monthly, to seasonally, to annually, to now [just whenever it feels right](http://www.howtobeagirlpodcast.com/episodes/episode-xxxiii-how-we-are-now).
