I was rooting for you!! We were ALL rooting for you!!! This week we read Jay Manuel's "novel"/self-insertion fan fiction about what it was like to work on America’s Next Top Model in "The Wig, the Bitch and the Meltdown." We dive into this burn book and discuss the 2000’s hot spots Tao and Buddakan (and why Jay chose to put them in a novel that takes place in 2020), doing Tyra dirty, Miss J's d*ck pics, why Janice Dickinson is our favorite, and that scene where Jay gets to pretend that Nigel Barker wanted him carnally. Move over Rachel Cusk, there’s a new queen of auto-fiction in town!

Come in and kick off your boots, y’all! This week we read and ate our way through Reba McEntire’s new cookbook "Not That Fancy: Simple Lessons on Living, Loving, Eating, and Dusting Off Your Boots." Between bites of her lip smackin’ ribs we discuss what it’s like to be a single mom who works two jobs, loves her kids, and never stops. Plus, how she became a camp icon, revitalized a small Oklahoma town, and overcame her fears to become the first-ever female KFC Colonel Sanders. Amen!

What if Einstein was a chick??? This week we read wildly popular millennial comedian Iliza Shlesinger’s book "Girl Logic: The Genius and the Absurdity." You might be asking, "What the hell is GL™?" Well, my liege, we’ll explore together. In this research project we discuss white jeans, nose jobs, awesome stepfathers, backup boyfriends, Emerson College, study abroad behavior, how to get female friends, and a time when Sarah Silverman was the hottest comedian. Plus, we'll address the age old question: Can men and women actually BE friends???
