The lady is a force determined to reach children through reading. The distance while quarantining and fear the children she taught were missing out on social interaction prompted Miss Reynolds to begin her online reading initiative which has sprouted into various projects all geared towards encouraging children to "put a little bit in their heads, a lot in their hearts and laugh their buns off" (Reynolds). Bring in your little ones and enjoy this episode. Afterward don't forget to follow Miss Reynolds and if you are interested in private readings or becoming her pen pal, send her a direct message on her Instagram.

Robin and Joa discuss the solutions government officials crafted in The End of Men by Christina Sweeney-Baird. "Where was this book during Covid?" Robin asked. Upon further discussion, the hosts realize that Mrs. Sweeney-Baird should let them know her favorite numbers since she wrote about the future with weird accuracy, so she may just have the winning numbers as well. The ladies also decided that this book should be mandatory reading for government officials because Mrs. Sweeney-Baird clearly got all the answers to solving global problems!
