    Book 1 Chapter 8 - We Read Somewhere

    Kung ililista namin ang mga pinag-usapan namin in this episode, baka mag-over sa character limit ng isang Spotify or YouTube content description. Sabi nga nila, when the cat (Lou) is away, the mice (Hez, Pael, and RJ) will play, and play indeed we did. From performative reading to missing scriptures in the Bible hanggang sa paboritong number sa electric fan, mas malala pa sa chop suey ang episode na ito. At sa totoo lang... this might be our most controversial episode yet. Kasalanan mo 'to, Hezel! Come, let's join us sa episode 8 ng paborito mong bookish podcast... The Bookbang Club! 📚

    May special guest ulit kami! Joining us in episode 6 is Penne Jacinto aka @faenelope of TikTok! This episode is dedicated to the hustlers na may oras pa ring magbasa, na para bang nakakatantos pa rin sa kanilang mga reading goals despite their busy schedules. This is also for the fantasy (or romantasy?) girlies out there. ACOTAR? Fourth Wing? The Bonds That Tie? Syempre na-mention yang mga yan sa episode na 'to! What is a good book? Do you check Goodreads before, while, and after reading a book? Do you insert yourself in the story? As the main character? Award! Let's go, episode 6!

Mula sa mga childhood throwbacks to teleserye tropes, Poveda sa Cabanatuan to creative deadlines, kung saan-saan napunta ang kwentuhan natin! Pero one thing's for sure, you'll get an insight to the life of a screenwriter and what inspires them - which we hope would inspire you! Kung pagod na pagod na pagod na pagod na si George, silang apat naman, chill na chill lang kasi hindi sila masyadong nagtrabaho sa episode na 'to. Sobrang daldal kasi nung guest. Episode 5 na, mga ka-bookbang! Parang ganon! 📚

Bongga. Samahan sina Hez, Lou, Pael, at RJ sa isa na namang episode ng walang katapusang pagya-yap tungkol sa mga paborito nilang libro at kwento.
