Listen as the ladies discuss the holidays that occur when the leaves change color and the barista uses pumpkin flavor in the coffee.

Joa poses questions to which Robin answers in her own unique style. You can't fault the girl for being herself! Check out what she'd do if stranded on an island or how much money would change hands during their discussion of sudden wealth—it's worth more than any amount of gold coins combined
I am sure you've heard people say that authenticity will always shine through no matter where they are, but this conversation proves just how true it really is. Shine Robin, shine!

Maybe it's time to try the audiobook version of your favorite book? Joa swears she hasn't been drinking…much. But Robin smells mimosas. The hosts discuss what makes a good book. Is it characters? Plot? Story? Structure? They chat, disagree and throw a few punchlines. Robin’s bruises will heal soon.

“Brevity is the soul of wit”—Polonius, a character in the play Hamlet, written by William Shakespeare. This quote could not be more true to life than it was when Joa and Robin talked about Be A Triangle by Lilly Singh. The book has a whole lot of soul, plenty of laughs but also it lent itself to some serious discussion about self-care, self-love and therapy. But that’s not all. Joa pulls out her book log again. Robin attempts to make a jingle for it, and as things happen in life, the hosts end up talking about food and hate cooking. Go figure…Definitely an episode you DON’T want to miss. Come for the book stay for the laughs.

Joa and Robin talk about the sophomore slump in writing, HOMICIDE AND HALO-HALO . They also discuss why they want to be friends with Mia P. Manansala—both for very different reasons. Would Joa cook all the book’s recipes? Would Robin taste them? Finally Robin reveals her SUMMERLASTING dream and is not of being a mermaid. It begins with LUMBER and ends in JACK. Shush, don’t tell.

Special thanks to Joa for sharing her day with us, from start to finish. From exercising at the spa to venting to her husband, she lays it all bare. Could it be our jobs aren’t so different? Or is Joa actually superhuman, as we’ve suspected all along?
If you want to know more about the Bliss 'Spa' you can check out their Facebook Page

What is dry, prickly with lots of mountains? El Paso, of course! Stick around for this episode where Joa tries to sell El Paso to all of our listeners, and if by the end of it you still don't want to visit, make sure to leave her a voice message. There's also a saga...and this time, it has nothing to do with Starbucks. Listen in and find out what made Robin's mouth drop open in front of a government official.

When you hear an excerpt of Lamar Neal's new book, STAGES it will be hard not to run off and purchase your copy. Joa did. But it wouldn’t be Robin and Joe if they didn’t take a chat detour, and that detour took them through College Memory Lane, Foggy Young Adult Highway and Being a Good Big Brother Drive. Buckle up and have fun!

What are women doing to support the patriarchal system? It's not an easy question, but is one that Robin asks while trying really hard not break her nose falling off her soapbox. Joa elegantly defines life and wonders why we are so hard on mothers. Is it because we are jealous of their superpowers? So many questions in this episode.

Robin and Joa chat about adoption, angels, Starbucks (and the end of world!), as well as what it takes to be an awesome mother-in-law. Luckily for us though - with her upcoming debut novel MRS. FRANCHY'S EVIL RING AND THE SIX MONTHS THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING, Joa will save us all. Also, Robin realizes that Joa secretly works at a spa and describes her lunar new year preparations.
From the ladies:

Robin and Joa are dreaming of a future filled with travel, and you will never guess (never ever) where Joa wants to go first. Joa shares more of her life in the military, they discuss road trips, cats, and snacks, and one or both admit to knowing far too much about the actress Victoria Ruffo.

In this very special encore episode, the ladies interview Debbie Reynolds. When quarantining began, Ms. Reynolds feared the children she taught were missing out on social interaction. This led to the creation of B.O.R.E.D (Better Off Reading Every Day) online reading initiative, which has sprouted various projects all geared towards encouraging children to "put a little bit in their heads, a lot in their hearts and laugh their buns off" (Reynolds). Bring in your little ones and enjoy this episode. Afterward, don't forget to follow Miss Reynolds and if you are interested in private readings or becoming her pen pal, send her a direct message on her Instagram.

Octavia Butler brought Robin and Joa together so it is only fair to close out the year with an encore episode about The Pattern Master. Listen to the ladies geek out and wonder if the late Ms. Butler was somewhat of a seer herself. I mean she did write a bunch of books about women with superpowers. Maybe she was one of those women.

A perfect book is a rare, beautiful thing. It's one of those things that you want to shout from the rooftops and tell everyone about. But what does it actually feel like? In this episode Robin and Joa violently agree that Sir Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let me Go is one of those rare finds. Additionally, during their discussion Robin takes a brave step in acknowledging her lack of familiarity with subtlety. Joa updates the listeners on her progress with Mrs. Franchy's Evil Ring and the Six Months that Changed Everything. Lastly, the ladies share with the audience their recent giveaway launch and upcoming Christmas song.
Sounds pretty magical, right?

Our hostesses with the mostest discuss Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows by Balli Kaur Jaswal. Robin didn't blush not once. Joa read the book twice in two different versions. During the discussion the ladies fall into this weirdly deep discussion about arranged marriages, supportive families, the value of widows and going back in time with their own love quests. This is the relationship talk you didn't think you needed.

In this episode, YouTube Sensation Barrett Laurie shares personal stories and query advice that the audience can learn from. He goes deep to talk about what got him off 'the hamster wheel' in his own way which makes Robin and Joa think of their own trot in the 'rat race.'
Additionally Barrett discusses how the information in 1000 True Fans gave him the idea to build a community through social media. He contributed to the Pride & Prejudice Short Story Anthology created by Charlie Dorsett with 'Unconditional.' You can listen to the reading here. Barrett is such a gem that he dropped some gold for self-published or soon-to-be self published authors to get a free Publishers Weekly review. Click here for more information on the free reviews, and here for the paid ones.
This episode will pay dividends for authors new, old, and soon-to-be. Listen to it, and re-listen to it.

Listen, listen! Miss Reynolds is going to tell us a story. In this episode, Robin and Joa get the chance to meet Debbie Reynolds from BORED with Miss Reynolds on Instagram and YouTube. The lady is a force determined to reach children through reading. The distance while quarantining and fear the children she taught were missing out on social interaction prompted Miss Reynolds to begin her online reading initiative which has sprouted into various projects all geared towards encouraging children to "put a little bit in their heads, a lot in their hearts and laugh their buns off" (Reynolds). Bring in your little ones and enjoy this episode. Afterward don't forget to follow Miss Reynolds and if you are interested in private readings or becoming her pen pal, send her a direct message on her Instagram.

Robin and Joa discuss the solutions government officials crafted in The End of Men by Christina Sweeney-Baird. "Where was this book during Covid?" Robin asked. Upon further discussion, the hosts realize that Mrs. Sweeney-Baird should let them know her favorite numbers since she wrote about the future with weird accuracy, so she may just have the winning numbers as well. The ladies also decided that this book should be mandatory reading for government officials because Mrs. Sweeney-Baird clearly got all the answers to solving global problems!

In this episode, Robin and Joa discuss The End of Men by Christina Sweeney-Baird. They realize that the book is not as hardcore feministic as its title suggests but rather a humanist story about people coming together in practical and loving ways to overcome the effect of a plague. In various tangents, they also find out there are more similarities between them than expected.

Utopia is a community built on trust, equality and love. It sounds like an amazing place to live in with friends that are family but there's no such thing as perfect! And maybe it is this perfection that can create tension in a story. In the final part of Superheroes and Salami Pies Robin shares what she thinks utopia is, gets ten different book ideas while Joa remembers overseas community living with the friends who became family.
