About Damn Time

Broads and Books

This week, we're channeling Lizzo, talking about books and pop culture with characters that have been through it (and come out stronger).

Plus, the Broads talk annoyingly delayed outrage, rejections, squirrels, and the trouble with numbers. We're recording on a different day, and we're coming in HOT.

• Check out all current and past picks at our Bookshop.org store.
• Listen to "About Damn Time," the song from Lizzo that inspired this week's theme.
• Watch Lizzo on SNL: Orchestra, Beanie Babies, Writer's Block
• Get a Broad's book: Order Dig Me Out by our own Amy Lee Lillard now!

Broads and Books is the funny and feminist book podcast you need in your life!
Each episode, Amy and Erin choose a unique theme. Then we choose two fiction books, two other genre books (short story collections, memoir, non-fiction, true crime, poetry, etc.), and two pop culture picks based on that theme. We surprise each other with our picks, talk about why we like them, and give you unexpected recommendations for every reading taste.
Along the way, we share embarrassing stories, pitch amazing-slash-crackpot business ideas, implicate ourselves in future crimes, check in on our Podcats, and so much more.
Broads and Books is fresh, funny, thought-provoking, and basically the best time you'll have all week.
