Episode name “Blame it on the Pad Thai”

It’s a full-on nostalgia meltdown! We’re talking McDonald’s, Barbies, Garbage Pail Kids, Cabbage Patches, baseball cards…….. Plus: the legend of Grandma Honeycutt & the The Hocksters. Take a peek into our childhood collections.

Rachel shares her bookish roots as an English teacher, we count the sugar cubes in soda (yikes), and yes—we’ve got books to review!

The only show where all this lives in perfect, chaotic harmony.

This week, we kick things off with the eternal struggle: what size should your book journal actually be? We’re talking grids vs. dots, chaotic tabs, washi tape ambitions, and how we each track our reading lives (or try to).

Then it’s time for The PTA Meeting—our name for this week’s literary lineup:

• Welcome to Night Vale by Joseph Fink & Jeffrey Cranor (weird, wonderful, weatherless)
  
• Scrambled Eggs & Whiskey by Hayden Carruth (yes, it’s poetry, and yes, it’s got kick)
  
• Wings of Fire: The Graphic Novel by Tui T. Sutherland (dragons. DRAGONS.)
  
• None of This Is True by Lisa Jewell (twisty and terrifying, in the best way)
  
• The Songbird and the Heart of Stone by A.G. Slatter (gothic fairy tale realness)
  
• The Answer Is No by Mira Sethi (short stories that don’t mess around)
  

It’s journals, jokes, and just enough literary chaos to keep things interesting. Bring your favorite pen, your beverage of choice, and a healthy fear of PTA meetings.
