In this week’s episode, Leia and Rachel chat about male-coded spaces, horror, community, and writing life (oh the horrors!)
Today’s Killer Guest is…

Lauren’s Subway Read: Japanese Gothic by Kylie Lee Baker
Rachel’s Pick: Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach
Leia’s Pick: The Gormenghast Novels by Mervyn Peake
