What happens when two author friends sit down in front of a live audience to talk shop? At When Words Collide 2025, Andrew Buckley and Finnian Burnett joined forces for Two Authors in Conversation, a heartwarming and laughter-filled session moderated by Heather Wilkey and recorded by Miranda Krogstad.
In this special StoryCentric Podcast: BFF Edition, Andrew and Finnian dive deep into the art of collaboration and the realities of making a living as a writer. Along the way, they reflect on their creative processes, swap hilarious stories from their careers, and share the joy (and occasional chaos) of building a writing life together.
It’s equal parts practical wisdom and friendship-fueled fun—perfect for anyone who loves writing, creativity, or the connections that make storytelling possible.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
