Hey there Bookworms! Thanks for tuning into Episode 15 of Season 2!

This week, we talk about that dreaded never ending date.. no not the good one with all the chemistry and stuff... the one where you ask yourself 1) Why didn't I drive myself? 2) Am I the only one that's bored out of my mind 3) How do I escape without hurting their feelings? 4) I'm never getting these 5 hours of my life back

I'm sure most of you can relate to this type of date, but hopefully your dates weren't as bad as the stories we're telling on this week's episode! 

Whatcha waiting for? Hit play to hear this week's cringe! 

Love,

Amy & Nana

Hey there Bookworms! Welcome to Episode 14 of Season 2!

This week, we put ourselves on the line to be judged for our judgmental ways... while we judge the people in this week's stories. (We're women of many words). 

We've always tried to hold back our judgemental tendencies, but sometimes, having a good judgment means saving yourself from a horrible date.

PS. take a shot for every "judge" or "judgemental" in this week's description. Judge, but make it fun.

Hi There Bookworms! Welcome to Episode 12 of Season 2!

Your demand is our command, we're here with some more wedding details! Did we mention there was a thunderstorm? or a mini hurricane? or McDonalds?? oh yes, it was THAT kind of wedding. 

OR if you're like, totally over it, skip to 15:23 for the stories, that's cool too, I won't be hurt (upside-down smiley face). This week we're sharing stories of strange living situations, situations that our storytellers definitely wished they were warned about before going to their date's place. In the world of social distancing, we're all nesting hard, but some took it in a literal way, and that just did not fly with his date.

Please just go listen already, I have too many puns, we'll be here forever. Happy Listening!!!!

Welcome back Bookworms!!!

First of all, miss Nana is now a MRS Nana, congratulations to her and Lyman for getting married in Lyman's parents' backyard this weekend!!!!! Here's a little sneak peak of the ceremony, and we'll be posting more pictures throughout the week. 

Nana and Lyman had quite the rocky start to their relationship, including Nana actually dumping Lyman because she thought he didn't like her that much. Turns out, Lyman was just so nervous about dating her that he couldn't open up properly. We're glad Lyman asked Nana for a second chance, and she took the chance because now they've grown into such a strong couple who are also the best of friends *cue the awsssss*... which is why we decided to choose FIRST DATES as our topic for this week.

First dates are awkward as hell, at best. But what if you had a first date that dragged you out to the middle of nowhere to bang and then called her boyfriend mid-bang? Oh, or what about a first date that started with a steak dinner and ended with a shitty surprise? Orrrr a first date where you tried your best not to catfish but unfortunately your date catfished her personality :(... These are just a few of the unfortunate first dates discussed on this week's episode. 

We also go into why you should give your first date a chance, and why second or third dates might be the better dates to judge whether or not you continue to pursue the relationship! 

What are you waiting for, tune into this week's episode and happy listening! !

Hi There Bookworms!

Welcome to Episode 10 of Season 2!

This week, we'll be telling some stories about Mother-in-laws from HELL!! We hope that none of these stories remind you of anyone, but unfortunately they might.... These were some of the craziest M-I-L stories we have ever heard, and we're just grateful our partner's mothers are angels compared to these monsters! We also dive into why M-I-Ls and daughter-in-laws usually have a tough time getting along (almost 60% of married women have issues with their M-I-L's, yikes)!!

Welp! Happy Listening!

Hi There Bookworms! 

Thanks for tuning into episode 9 of season 2! 

After discussing "first time" stories around a campfire, Amy decided to pick this as the topic for the week! Yupppp! These may possibly be some of the most cringey stories EVER.. and Amy decided to throw her own story in, and there is nothing sexy about it apart from the fact that they were watching Shrek *sad face.* You definitely don't want to miss this episode, ENJOY!

P.S. Question for you all though... Does anyone have a GOOD first time story? Just wondering because I don't think we've ever heard a good one. Please, someone, help debunk this for us! We will be eternally grateful!
