This week the boys are pleased to welcome to the stage, the complex multi-talents of DOCTOR Bernie Lombardi, Literature PhD and (slightly thotty) gay bookstagrammer extraordinaire. This week we grill him on the wily ways of literary Britain and their coveted Booker prize. Before we get into all that, we discuss MUCH more important topics. That is, the life and times of Paris Hilton and her new documentaries This is Paris. Honey we are living!

Hosts: Quentin Greif and Nick Peña

Music: Jack Frazee and John Eliot

When did teens become so uncool? Is Anne Hathaway just too young to be the head witch? Are you scaring all your neighborhood children appropriately? Will we ever stop writing novels about damaged intellectual party sluts? AND the boys take on Catherine House by Elisabeth Thomas and Hollywood's famous closet cases. Get into!

Is Kylie Minogue here to save us all? Did Donald fake covid to make us think he is sleeping with Hope? Will Rhianna ever make music again? Also: laughing through the apocalypse with Rumaan Alam, Nick and Quentin out themselves as believers in alternative dimensions, and Skinwalker Ranch.

Get into it! The boys discuss the Ellen update, white dreads, straight vs. gay onlyfans, the national obsession with seeming good AT ALL COSTS, Kagan's dykes on bikes vibe, Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier, and Ryan Murphy's seasonal money shower.

Bell Book and Scandal is a weekly conversation between two gay best friends. Bell, the section where we complain about our week and let you know what we’re into. Book, where we discuss books we love to love or love to hate. And Scandal, where we dish on a celebrity scandal and guide you down the internet rabbit hole. I’m Quentin and I’m Nick, get into it.
