    Natasha Lester and Priya Parmar "I Have An Ulterior Motive"

    Join these two bestselling authors as they discuss their new books set in Old Hollywood. They talk about not outlining their books because “it ruins all the fun,” how locations are sentient, how no two people read the same book, being traumatized by rabid Virginia Woolf fans, and visiting the mind-blowing prop room at Warner Bros. ​You might even hear about the connection between handwriting every day and dementia.

    Carl Zimmer and Sadie Dingfelder "I Have a Tapeworm Named After Me"

    Remember “science,” everyone? We’re thrilled to have two incredibly accomplished science researchers and authors on this episode. Listen as they discuss what “face blindness” means, the existential freakout most scientists are currently having, recall fondly the time when we used to have “slow news days,” and how we need weirdos in the world.  ​You’ll also hear what happens when you look inside a bunch of people’s belly buttons.

    Jennifer Ryan and Melanie Benjamin "Royals Are Just Like Us...Only They're Not"

    Who doesn’t love a good story about the Royal Family (even if it’s your secret, guilty pleasure)? Join these two bestselling historical fiction authors as they talk about their recent novels, both about the Royals, but from different points of view and at different times in history. Listen to them discuss historical parallels to modern-day Royals, how you have to approach writing historical fiction, and whether to focus on real vs. imagined characters, and how younger readers seem to have a harder time entering a past time period where gender roles are different. ​ You might even hear about the Queen skydiving into the 2012 London Olympics (or did she?...)

    Patmeena Sabit and Nadia Hashimi "I'm All of These Things Rolled Into One"

    Internationally bestselling author Nadia Hashimi in conversation with Afghan-born debut author Patmeena Sabit (a “gorgeous and powerful debut” - NYT). They discuss their shared family roots in Afghanistan, how women fought in the Special Forces on the frontlines of war, how there’s a variety of perspectives in the Muslim diaspora, how characters talk to you, and how all writing is a “false start” until you hit your stride. You will also hear whose young son mistakenly said, “I thought you wrote the books. I didn’t know you just ordered them from Amazon.”

    Amanda Jones and Barbara Dee "Judy Blume Was Everything and More"

    We are so proud to have these two amazing women and authors on this episode.  Barbara is the author of fifteen middle school books including her latest, Nothing to See Here, which will be released in October.  Amanda released her first book, That Librarian, in response to the attacks that librarians are being subjected to in the current book banning frenzy around the country.   They discuss how books and reading shaped their lives, being trained in public speaking, how they talk non-stop to their friends about books, and the importance of internet safety.  You'll have to listen to find out what happened when a very large iced tea spilled onto a surge protector three seconds before going on live tv... ​

    Julian Sancton and Hampton Sides "Terrible Tales of Woe and Shipwreck"

    These two NYT bestselling authors write superbly researched books about extraordinary historical events. You’ll hear what they love about the writing process and what is described as “going into the pain cave,” the art of creating memorable book titles, how ice shudders and shrieks, the helpful vs. nefarious uses of AI and what human writers can do that AI can’t, and how writing in loud coffee shops is ideal (until the staff forgets about you and locks you in one of them overnight). You might even hear about advice from historian Shelby Foote and what he meant by the comment “like green beans in a pressure cooker.
