As seasonal illness continues to weigh on our competitors, we look to nature for answers in this week's reading challenge, Hope Jahren's vibrant autobiography 'Lab Girl.'

This week, YWAM is tackling The Cabin at the End of the World, the basis for the new M Night Shyamalan film! You'll also hear about our recent trip to Columbia, and thrill to a surprising upset in the reading challenge totals.

The first reading challenge of 2023 takes us through Sylvain Neuvel's The Themis Files, a sci-fi series whose iron giants are anything but gentle. Before that, we share our pursuits of various accreditations by way of online and i.r.l. seminars.

The race for wordcount is officially underway in 2023! Elizabeth is back from the Kindle Unlimited mines with a fresh crop of romance series, and Thomas has his first reading challenge of the year to issue, as well as some books you'll just have to wait until next episode to hear about.

The curtain closes on another season of Your Words Against Mine. Elizabeth and Thomas recall their favorite reads of 2022, share holiday stories, and finally reveal whose wordcount came out on top. Furthermore, with the new year dawning, your hosts are setting their next round of goals even higher! Join in the fun with a fresh new seasons of YWAM!

A Merry Christmas and Happy Final episode of 2022! As our hosts prepare for next year's big new framing device, visions of cataloguing software dancing in their heads, we'd like to take a moment to thank everyone who tuned in. We hope we've been of some comfort to you, and we welcome you to join us again in season 3!

With 2022 winding down, there has been a lot of house keeping to take care of. Nevertheless, if there's two things you can always count on, it's reading and podcasting (way better than those other two things.)

Happy Thanksgiving from Your Words Against Mine. This year, we're grateful to be recording in the same room again, and to both be on the exact same page when it comes to the latest reading challenge.

The end is in sight for this season of YWAM, but your hosts still have a lot of reading to go if they want to meet their goals. Life, as it will, throws some curveballs into the mix, but we're back again to talk Josh Malerman's Bird Box follow-up, Inspection.

Plans for the week ahead lead off a relatively laid back episode, where we discuss Edward Ashton's thrilling and existential sci-fi adventure.
