Warning: This week’s review is a bit different than normal. First off, there was no real script. Just KJaylia winging it into the microphone. Secondly, this week’s book is not a novel but a short story collection. A sci-fi short story collection! Thi... more

The premise is intriguing, the writing is well done, and even though there aren’t witches, (as I originally thought) there is some magic that warrants a closer look. This week’s Spoiler Free review is for Adrienne Young’s 2023 romantic and mysterious... more

  • Challenging and stimulating

    I chose the Hitchhickers episode because I know all of the versions of this really well. I found this really challenging as a listen in a good way. Some really interesting perspectives and while I can’t say I agreed with all the views but instead of turning off it kept me engaged to keep listening. I’m glad the two hosts are obviously good friends cause I was worried they would kill each other during the show! Thankfully it was all good in the end. So leave your pr conceptions at the door and g... more

  • Not Bad, Could Be Better

    I went looking for a padcast that compares books to movies and found this one. While it does do that, the analysis that they plow through at the begining makes it sound like they are simply reading the wiki plot summary and haven't read nor watched the movie. Their discussions later do make it sound like they did indeed read/watch them, but that plot plow-through sets the tone for the rest of the podcast.

Author Interview and Review: George M. Johnson / All Boys Aren't Blue
Q: What would be your message to LGBTQIA youth living in places like the South?
Remember that you exist. Remember that you have legacy, you have history, you have people who are out here fighting for you every day to survive, to do more than survive, but also thrive.
Author Interview and Review: George M. Johnson / All Boys Aren't Blue
Q: What do you think the target demographic age-wise is for your book?
The book is for 14 and 18-year-olds. So that's so high school.
Author Interview and Review: George M. Johnson / All Boys Aren't Blue
Q: How did you first find out about your book being banned?
I first found out about it on Twitter. One of my followers added me and was like, hey, I don't know if you've seen this, George, but on Facebook, there is some man in Kansas City who was running for school board president and is using your book as basically their platform.
Author Interview and Review: George M. Johnson / All Boys Aren't Blue
Q: Could you explain a little bit about what that is and what inspired you to write your story not just as a memoir, but a memoir manifesto?
I felt it was a manifesto in many ways. I felt it was a call to action. I felt it was a declaration, breaking of the silence that many queer kids feel and have felt and continue to feel.
S014 Mail Bag Episode!
Q: Will you be using YouTube for your podcasts in the future?
I have been putting older Pages and Popcorn episodes on YouTube, but it will mainly be an audio-only situation.
