    #24: The Old Man and the Sea

    It's time for that classic summer beach read, The Old Man and the Sea, by Ernest Hemingway!

    #23: An Inspector Calls

    It's our first listener-requested title: An Inspector Calls by JB Priestley! This play was new to our hosts, but required for students in the UK, which makes for a delightfully British-ish episode. Join Lauren and Jess as they explore this "Compulsory Classic," expand their slang-vocabulary and examine all the different ways in which rich old British people can be assholes. Thanks for the request, Beth! Like us on FB, follow us on Twitter and Insta and get your copy of Bram Stoker's Dracula ready so you can join us in February (maybe?) for some gothic goodness. Theme music and lyrics by Max McEwan and Noah Wilson, vocals by Erin C. Willis.

    It's our traditional bummer of a holiday episode with The Little Match Girl by Hans Christian Andersen!

Like us on FB, follow us on Twitter and Insta and get your copy of Bram Stoker's Dracula ready so you can join us in January for some gothic goodness. Theme music and lyrics by Max McEwan and Noah Wilson, vocals by Erin C. Willis.

    Is the Baby-Sitters Club great literature? No. Is it a soothing, easy read during COVID times? Hells, yes.

Like us on FB, follow us on Twitter and Insta and stay tuned for our next title! Theme music and lyrics by Max McEwan and Noah Wilson, vocals by Erin C. Willis.
