This podcast is part book club, part musical analysis, part creator conversations, and all parts obsession. In season 2, we are re-reading our first loves: the first books we remember really loving! We have 3 main episode formats: 1. Book Club: Read-along conversations on our favorite books: we talk at the half way point and again at the end of the book. As co-hosts we alternate suggesting books we love or want to read. We mostly read novels, and we talk about the characters as if they are real people, because aren’t they? 2. Creator More-Than-Interviews: We got sick of listening to regular interviews, but still wanted to get to know the creators we love (authors, artists, musicians, comedians …) so what did we do!? We combined the book club format with the interview format. We invite amazing creators onto the show and together we read a book that is meaningful to them, and discuss both the book and their life and work. 3. Musical Deep Dives: Imagine the depth of a book club conversation, applied to music! We talk about musicians we love, exploring the meaning of their lyrics, the themes in their albums, the impact of their songs on our lives, and all the fun facts about the artist and their work. We take listener suggestions for episodes, feature listener audio messages on the show, and even bring on listeners as co-hosts!
