Kristen Meinzer and Josh Gondelman host a literary slumber party for the ages.

What You'll Hear

Guest List Goals: Kristen and Josh imagine which book characters they’d invite to their dream pillow fort—complete with chaos, cat hats, and a few smoldering grudges.

Reading Between the Lines: Kristen leans into the dramatic with Miss Havisham and Gatsby himself, while Josh brings along Jordan Baker and a Harlem furniture man with a secret.

Bookish Bedlam: From barbershop talk to Brontë backstories, the hosts mix mindful rest with mischievous imagination.
