The Minisode (QR 084)

(tap, tap) Is this thing on? (tap) I think it’s on.

Hey everyone. It’s just me, Tara, this week. Kris couldn't join me as usual, so instead of replaying one of our old episodes, we came up with an idea for something smaller. Here are my top five podcasts and an official recommendation.

Official Recommendation

From Tara: Blood Remains by Cathy Pegau

This week, I’m recommending the historical, sapphic, urban fantasy romance Blood Remains by Cathy Pegau. The worldbuilding is robust, inviting us into the syndicated crime scene of 1930s Seattle. It also has found family, which I’m a huge sucker for. 

Works/People Discussed

• Maintenance Phase (Suggested episodes: Snake Oil, The Body Mass Index, Diet Book Deep Dive: Angela Lansbury’s “Positive Moves”)
• Your Fat Friend
• If Books Could Kill (Suggested episodes: Men are From Mars, Women are From Venus, The 5 Love Languages, The 4-Hour Work Week)
• A More Civilized Age
• Better Offline
• History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps
