Plus, in our coffee break, we share our latest reads — Lana dives into Make a Scene by Mimi Grace, while Sam revisits Deja Brew by Celestine Martin. We also chat about our realistic fall TBR goals and what's coming next in our Substack roundup. Content warning: racial violence, wrongful conviction, family conflict.

“You part the crowd like the Red Sea, don't even get me started.” This week, we're deep diving "Now That We Don't Talk" from 1989 (Taylor's Version). This vault track is lyrically dense, structurally complex, and emotionally devastating in its exploration of uncertainty, insecurity, and the relationships that leave us wanting more. We analyze biblical references, rhetorical questions, enjambment, and why this song was ultimately too insecure to make the original 1989 album. Join us as we unpack how Taylor uses poetic devices to create a haiku-like meditation on the aftermath of an intimate relationship—whether romantic, platonic, or something in between.   Subscribe for free to get episode updates or upgrade to paid to get our After School premium content: aptaylorswift.substack.com/subscribe.

Air Date 10/15/2025 It's said that money can't buy a variety of things like peace, happiness, loyalty, and, relevant for today; integrity and trust. But in a world in which impressions (a very multilayered word, in this case) can be bought and sold on the open market and an audience's loyalty to influencers, entertainers, and athletes can be leveraged in an attempt to transfer the credibility from the talented to the tyrannical... you better believe places like Saudi Arabia and Israel are going to try.

Do you like spooky reads, or do you tend to steer clear of anything too creepy? In Episode 298, Jen and Ashley share our favorite books for the season, and we talk about what makes the perfect fall read. We start with our Bookish Check-in: Ashley is listening to Thorn Season (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm) by Kiera Cass, and Jen's revisiting Richard Matheson's I Am Legend (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm). Then we each bring a fall pick to the table: we share about Megan Bannen's The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm) and Adriana Mather's How to Hang a Witch (Bookshop.org | Libro.fm). Both picks have ghosts, magic, and just enough spookiness to feel seasonal without being nightmare fuel.   Just a reminder that if you purchase books using our affiliate links for Bookshop.org and Libro.fm, or if you shop on Bookshop using our Unabridgedpod shop, we get a small percentage of those sales, which supports us and the companies.   We wrap things up with a Lit Chat question about DNFs: do you finish every book you start? We share a little honesty about how hard it can be to stop reading something once it's begun. Join us, and let us know on Instagram what your favorite spooky reads are (and whether you're a completionist or a proud DNFer)!

Conversación con la escritora, guionista y locutora mexicana GABRIELA DAMIÁN MIRAVETE, autora de La canción detrás de todas las cosas y diversas obras de ciencia ficción. “Un cambio químico hace de la roca un capullo... miedos y anhelos son cantados por esos cuerpos pequeños…como ocurre con todo lo bello e importante”, dice Damián, quien en su trabajo explora MUNDOS GEOLÓGICOS, minerales y animales desde una perspectiva que algunos califican como ecofeminista, creando narrativas que escapan de las clasificaciones tradicionales. Su libro LA CANCIÓN DETRÁS DE TODAS LAS COSAS invita, por ejemplo, a imaginarse bestia, pájaro, agua o lombriz: “Prueba ahora tu flexibilidad, tu resbaladiza danza, siente el modo en que encarnas una perfecta estructura anillada que se repite: eres bella, lombriz, como eres adentro, eres afuera. Caes del pico que te había pescado, que ya volaba para llevarte a su nido, siente cómo rebotas sobre la piedra y vuelves a revolcarte entre el hongo y la hierba”. Gabriela Damián Miravete es miembro del colectivo Cúmulo de Tesla y cofundadora de MEXICONA (Convención sobre literatura especulativa, fantasía y horror), ha destacado por cuentos como "Soñarán en el jardín", ganador del Premio Tiptree, que imagina un México del futuro libre de feminicidios. Conversa con VALENTÍN ORTIZ, arquitecto, fundador de la distribuidora Saga Libros y gestor cultural que, por más de 20 años, ha coordinado diversos programas, premios literarios, festivales, asociaciones y proyectos vinculados a la promoción del libro y la lectura. Esta conversación es parte del capítulo de ciencia del Parque Explora en la Fiesta del Libro y la Cultura de Medellín 2025.

Traci Thomas (The Stacks) returns to guest host "Viral Article Book Club" with a twist. Journalist Zach Stafford (Vibe Check) joins her to unpack the cultural conversation around Paul Thomas Anderson's new film "One Battle After Another," alongside two articles: The Guardian's "Jezebel's Race Kink and Cardi B in One Battle After Another" and Brooke Obie's Substack piece "One Fetish After Another." They explore how the movie portrays Black women, interracial relationships, and the aesthetics of the moment we're in. Plus: why Teyonah Taylor, Chase Infiniti, and Leonardo DiCaprio's performances make the film's message even harder to pin down.

"Isn't it just so pretty to think all along there was some invisible string tying you to me?" This week, we're deep diving "invisible string" (folklore 2020). We go line by line through this deceptively whimsical love song, exploring everything from Greek mythology to Jane Eyre references, the evolution of time from "curious" to "mystical" to "wondrous," and why Taylor chooses to believe in fate.

Comedians and podcast hosts Elena Crevello and Chelsea Davison (Podstruck: A Romcom Rewind) return to dig even deeper into the mind of Matthew McConaughey as they unpack his new poetry collection, “Poems & Prayers.” From rom-com regrets to not-so-subtle verses about sin and redemption, they revisit his “Greenlights” memoir to dissect poems about burritos, wet dreams, and porta-potty revelations. They also analyze a few poems that will have you wondering if his wife is a woman we need to check on.

“No two caregiving journeys are alike,” writes Emma Heming Willis, the wife of actor Bruce Willis, who was diagnosed in 2023 with Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD), a rare form of dementia affecting behavior, movement and language. “But we are connected by the same unchosen thread.” In The Unexpected Journey: Finding Strength, Hope, and Yourself on the Caregiving Path, Emma writes movingly and hopefully about the blessings and burdens of being thrust into the role of caregiver, emerging as a passionate voice for care partners and families navigating neurodegenerative disease. Together with her collaborator, Michele Bender, she offers an essential blueprint for others confronting some of the same issues facing her own family. “My grief can still paralyze me,” she shares in the pages of the book she wishes someone had handed her when her husband was first diagnosed. “I still have a hard time accepting what is, yet FTD doesn't give you many options. It can suck all the air out of a room. So I've made a choice to pump oxygen back into our lives, for the sake of our girls, Bruce, and me. And to give the middle finger to this disease.” Join us as we visit with Emma Heming Willis and her co-author Michele Bender for a heartbreaking and heart-lifting conversation on what it takes to tap the universal elements in such a deeply personal story—and what it means to step from an unimaginable darkness at home to stand in the world as a light for others.

Air Date 10/3/2025 People around the world are angry, often for different reasons and even more frequently based on falseities - though not always. For instance, the Right in the UK and France are upset about immigration though most of those who are angry are wrong about the facts. But there's also widespread dissatisfaction with national governments and pessimism about their ability to make life better over the short term which is leading to much less predictable politics.

My chat with God And Sex author Jon Raymond, a book that The New York Times assures "lives up to its epic title." We covered: (1) writing a story that unites the worldviews of his Buddhist father and Jewish mother; (2) drawing inspiration from Graham Greene's classic The End Of The Affair, and (3) how curing writer despair is often a matter of just re-investing yourself in the writer community. The karma is real. Order Mark's novel Bunyan and Henry. All episodes of The Thoughtful Bro aired live originally on A Mighty Blaze.

Monster memoir correspondent and Fixing Famous People host Chris DeRosa sits in for Chelsea and, along with comedian and writer Jo Feldman, dives into Charlie Sheen's memoir “The Book of Sheen” to decide if it's “winning” or a monster memoir. From Sheen's early life traveling for his father Martin Sheen's career, to his first big break in a B-movie with Laura Dern and George Clooney, they trace every peak and valley of his career through “Two and a Half Men” and his journey with sobriety. Plus: a clown car of celebrity cameos, including Marlon Brando, O.J. Simpson, Rob Lowe, Sean Penn, Jennifer Grey, Denise Richards, Mira Sorvino, Slash, and more.
