Episode 8 - Shelf Portraits w/ Jacob

This week Han and Dan have a special guest! We’re joined by fellow countryman and husband Jacob Beasley for a cozy, bookish catch-up. He shares how he found his way back to reading as an adult, the books that shaped him growing up, and what kinds of stories he's loving now.
