【】The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
If you learn one thing from this week's episode of the 。 "。MashReads Podcast" we hope it's that you always remember to bring a towel when you travel.。
That's just one of the many important tips that we learned when discussing Douglas Adams'。 The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy。, which you can listen to right here.。
If you're unfamiliar with the long legacy of the。 Hitchhiker's Guide。series, it is a self-proclaimed "trilogy" consisting of five books, that tells the tale of the dull, old Englishman Arthur Dent. He was just your average run-of-the-mill guy until he was whisked away into the furthest reaches of the galaxy by his friend, who turned out to be an alien, minutes before the Earth is blown to smithereens. 。
Luckily, the two were picked up by a spaceship powered by improbability, of all things, and captained by the Galactic President Zaphod Beeblebrox.。

The first episode The Laff Box explores the rise and fall of the laugh track. "It's so fascinating. I found myself learing so much.
