Obscure with Michael Ian Black

Episode 1 - To Begin

<p>Michael explains why this is probably a terrible idea, as he begins reading "Jude The Obscure."</p>

<p>Comedian Michael Ian Black is tackling a great work of literature. Actually, Tackling might be too strong a word. More like “light caressing” plus a lot of complaining. He's reading the Thomas Hardy classic, Jude the Obscure, out loud and commenting as he goes. Join Michael, some of his famous (and non-famous) friends and experts as he discovers Jude’s world and a few things about his own. Is it a terrible idea? Probably. But it’s a terrible idea he wants to do with you.</p>
