#289: Inaugural Winter Reading Podcast

Sarah and co-host Ellison Weist (a.k.a. The BookBully) gab about books, Netflix offerings, animated movies, and other pop culture goodies as they make the AMR reading-related a bi-annual happening. The good friends play catch-up in the beginning, with Ellison telling the tale of her return to racing—a 5K she nabbed 1st-place in her age group—plus the launch of her eponymous podcast, The BookBully. Learn who Auggie is (other than the hero of the YA novel Wonder). Buckle your seatbelt (tighten your sports bra?!) when they duo embarks on their discussion of books, as the conversation has countless curves and side trips! The mother runners talk about books they still regret reading the entire thing because they felt manipulated by it. They talk about how The Power is most certainly a parable of our times…but does it live up to all the hype? Numerous times, SBS equates reading books to running a race—and the gals talk about when they each DNF with a book. Historical references fly, as do Netflix suggestions. This hour+ episode has something for everyone! Here’s where to find all the books discussed in this episode. The book-bit of the show opens at 24:15.
