Anna brings Surge on the great American 90's childhood literary journey that he missed out on. Right now we're going through RL Stine's Fear Street series in chronological order. It's evolved from having general discussions about the books to creating our own fan theory about the world of Fear Street.

We also start each episode with a review of other books we've read recently. We occasionally interview authors.

More Bingeworthy Than Netflix

I love listening to these while running at the gym. I enjoy how Surge and Anna can go back and forth with each other especially when romance topics come up and they have differing opinions and get SO heated over trash teen fiction. Keep up the great work💝
