We have been trying to get our friend Alexis on the podcast and it finally succeeded, but because destiny opposes our works and ways, Whiskey Jenny was too sick to join us. Luckily Alexis and I still have lots of opinions between the two of us, and we had a grand time (though not as grand as it would have been if Whiskey Jenny had been there with us) chatting about book clubs and book swaps, and what we’re reading and listening to, and Aminatta Forna’s latest book, Happiness.
You can listen to the podcast using the embedded player below, or download the file directly to take with you on the go!
Here are the time signatures if you want to skip around!

Alexis is listening to The West Wing Weekly and My Dad Wrote a Porno! And I’m listening to songs from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and the Dear Prudence podcast, with Daniel Mallory Ortberg FORMERLY OF THE TOAST. (Watch Crazy Ex-Girlfriend if you’re not already.)
Get at me on Twitter, email the podcast, and friend me (Gin Jenny) and Whiskey Jenny on Goodreads. If you like what we do, support us on Patreon. Or if you wish, you can find us on iTunes (and if you enjoy the podcast, give us a good rating! We appreciate it very very much).
