  Episode #23

  23: Keep Pa God

  Aug 6, 20261h 41mS2

  This week, Molly emerges from the warm embrace of Stars Hollow to give us the scoop on her first watch of Gilmore Girls. Trigger warning: Dean. Claire, meanwhile, has been living in a log cabin courtesy of the Little House on the Prairie reboot. Also this week, Claire recaps another thriller with a ChatGPT title, and makes the case for not DNFing a book (with a metaphor that is a JOKE by the way.) Finally, we give a long-awaited update on our books.

  Episode #22

  22: Call the WHO Gemma Chan is here

  Jul 30, 20261h 28mS2

  This week, we provide almost the exact coordinates of where we live. Hint: Molly has Legionnaire's. We have a lot of media to catch up on this week, including the Peacock adaptation of Elin Hilderbrand's Five Star Weekend. Claire read the book and Molly watched the show. Together, we recount most of the plot. Molly reviews Jennifer Lopez's latest, Office Romance, and Claire finally gives her take on 2007's Atonement, which leads us to discuss when and how to use "the worst word you can possibly imagine."

  21: You had the T&T of your L

  Jul 16, 20261h 18mS2

  Let&t’s t&talk about&t it&t. If you could decode that, download the limited edition Plum LP of this episode (kidding). We stayed in town this Fourth of July for a very special occasion. To celebrate, we try our hand at one of life’s most challenging writing exercise: vows. Log your bets on Kalshi now for who you think gets to be @killatrav. Also this week, we discuss daddy-daughter romance in Harlan Coben’s I Will Find You. Plus, Molly digs into what she’s loving and what she’s liking just ok from Elle on Prime. Thanks, Adam!

  Episode #20

  20: Your Senator can't have a Senator

  Jul 9, 20261h 37mS2

  That’s right, we’re talking about Ansel Elgort for at least five minutes again. And this time, we compare him to Nick Robinson, which we’re sure is flattering for him. We watched Voicemails for Isabelle and we can’t stop thinking about Mr. Robinson’s hand acting, or the concept of dessert nachos. Other topics covered this week: Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke, the Empire State Building engagement, one specific episode of Black Mirror, and Claire’s highly anticipated return to Panem (nurse, she’s reading The Hunger Games again.) Speaking of nurses and things that won’t die, we debate the state of Mitch McConnell.

  Ears God made by accident

  Jul 2, 20261h 35mS2

  We’re back, and Molly is cursing more than ever before. Your Bookstupid hosts are fresh off their longest stint apart since Claire studied abroad in college (did you know?? That she studied abroad??). In addition to a much needed catch up on our lives, Ali Hazelwood’s Not in Love x Problematic Summer Romance, Christina Lauren’s (but really Lauren’s) Love and Other Words, Widow’s Bay, and Every Year After, we do a close read on a generational new romance text: Olivia Rodrigo’s You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love. Oliva, we have received your message.
