Want to know why there is very little coverage of working class issues?
Or why the media is generally pro-war?
Want to know why we never hear about the ruling class?
Maybe it's the fact that just a handful of multinational corporations control 90% of the media in America.

I created this podcast to hold in-depth conversations about topics not usually covered by the mainstream media, including oligarchy, the class divide, corporate consolidation of the media, the healthcare crisis, the growing labor movement, the military-industrial complex, the failed bipartisan foreign policy consensus and more.

Plug in, ignore real life for a bit and chat with your unhinged yet lovable besties Emily and Ashley.

Whether they’re breaking down a gripping thriller, exploring true crime cases, or tackling thought-provoking topics like justice and human nature, every episode blends depth, humor, and the kind of chemistry only 23 years of friendship can create.

Welcome to Storied Arcs! A read-along deep dive into comics, one story arc at a time...
In each episode, we will discuss one story arc, typically in the form of a trade paperback, for a completed comic series. In general, we will be avoiding ongoing or continuing series so that we can discuss a work in its entirety.
We’ll also be avoiding the “big two” (Marvel and DC.) While we love those comics, there are plenty of podcasts covering characters like Batman, Superman, Spiderman, and so on. Instead, we’re excited to explore some of the great creator-owned stories. We’ll deep dive into the story while evaluating the prose, art, and all the easter eggs we can find.

Whether it was a reaction to the politics of the time or the rapidly approaching end date of the Mayan calendar, the pop-cultural landscape of the early 2010s can be best remembered for one thing: dystopian literature. Join plucky young heroines and podcast hosts Daphne and Kellie as they dive into all of your favorite young adult novels and series from this era as we reread the revolution. We lived through it once and are back to recap, review, and discuss all the best and worst that the world-shifting genre of YA fiction has to offer–the sci-fi, the fantasy, and the supernatural–at least until our society crumbles and we have to survive a brave new world.

Do you want someone to discuss your current read with!? Look no further! We’re Vicky and Kristen, longtime book besties who love to talk about the books we’re reading. Think of us as your virtual book club. Join us each week in our discussions. We will post the books we’re reading that month on our social media accounts, so you can join us. We’ll release every Wednesday morning for your morning commute!

Join Logan and Brett as we read the entirety of War and Peace one chapter per day, finishing the whole book in one year.

War and Peace is famous for its titanic length. However, this massive book is made up of tiny chapters--averaging only 4 pages long. Moreover, the book has a total of 361 chapters, meaning that just 10-20 minutes of reading per day will cover the entire novel in almost one year exactly.

Every day we'll read one chapter of the book, then sit down here and talk about it--what we loved, what we hated, which characters we think would do well on American Idol. Along the way we'll also provide some historical context and help keep track of the book's many characters (and their many many names), so you can focus on enjoying the incredible story and characters of a novel widely (and rightly) considered one of the greatest of all time.

Just one chapter each day, and you can tell all your friends: Yeah, I've read War and Peace, you haven't?
