HEY YALL! NEXT ON THE SHELF IS HERE! In this week’s book club episode, we dive deep into Lucinda Berry’s gripping psychological thriller, When She Returned. Amber and Colby break down the entire plot twists, turns and all, while answering a series of discussion-based questions that dig into the book’s most shocking moments. We also share our own unsettling, real-life stories about cultish encounters and questionable groups. If you’re fascinated by cults, complicated family dynamics, and characters that leave you guessing until the very end, you won’t want to miss this one.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
