Bookclub Bitches #12: The Inevitable clip show, now without clips

powered by ODEO Since FFJ was busy giving birth, we decided to take a month off from reading a new book for Bookclub Bitches and instead revisit all our old podcasts and talk about if we had changed our mind on any of the books we’ve read thus far. I didn’t. Of course. However one [...]

Bookclub Bitches 11: I am the Messenger and the message is, I suck at endings

powered by ODEO For the April edition of Bookclub Bitches, FFJ and I read I am the Messenger by Markus Zuzak. This is one of those books that I was pretty much enjoying in a kind of mindless way until the very end where it pissed me off so much that it made me totally [...]

Bookclub Bitches 10: Persepolis a book I want to make love to

powered by ODEO For the March edition of Bookclub Bitches FFJ and I read Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. We actually read both Persepolis and Persepolis 2. I don’t see how one could read the first one and not want to read the second one immediately. To say that I loved this graphic memoir is like [...]

Bookclub Bitches 9: The Screwtape Letters or, boy that sucked

powered by ODEO For February, FFJ and I read, or rather attempted to read C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters. It sucked. It sucked hard and it sucked long. It was really, very quite bad. But I suppose you’ll find that out of if you listen to the podcast. For March we promise to read something [...]

Bookclub Bitches 8: Lamb, The Gospel According to Biff blah blah blah

powered by ODEO For 2008 FFJ and I have resolved to update Bookclub Bitches every single month. This will, of course, prove taxing considering we’ve only done 7 episodes since we started the podcast erm, a year and a half ago. To kick off this year we read Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff Christ’s [...]

Bookclub Bitches 7: Later, at the Bar

powered by ODEO For this installment of Bookclub Bitches FFJ and I read Later, at the Bar, a novel in short stories. I compare this book to Ol’ Opie one of my Friday night bowlers. This isn’t a good thing. You’ll be happy to know that I was completely sober for this podcast, so I [...]

Bookclub Bitches 6: Introducing the BILF

powered by ODEO This episode of Bookclub Bitches finds us reading Rob Sheffield’s Love is a Mix Tape. I apologize in advance for my utterly annoying, drunk on wine-coolers whinnying-like laugh. Seriously, when I hear these podcasts it makes me wonder why anyone would ever listen to me speak. Because if I had to listen [...]

Better than humping Jim Halpert

My plans suddenly reappeared tonight, which is good. FFJ and I got together to do our May installment of Bookclub Bitches. I’ll be posting it later this weekend. But it is good, probably the best episode yet. You will see. Every time those wavy blue sound things come up in Audacity (pictured above) it means [...]

Bookclub Bitches: I was not thinking Arbys

powered by ODEO In this installment of Bookclub Bitches, FFJ and I discuss Remainder by Tom McCarthy and we stay relatively on topic until she brings up Adrien Brody and Arbys. It’s all down hill from there.

The bitches prepare

FFJ and I are preparing for the next episode of the Bookclub Bitches podcast. And by preparing, I mean reading the book Remainder and having a brief talk about it. “Did you finish Remainder?” FFJ asked. “Not yet,” I said. “But I am so in love with it.” “Why do you love it?” she asked. [...]

KAPOW! Bookclub Bitches strike again

powered by ODEO In this episode of Bookclub Bitches, FFJ and I read Hush, Vol. 1 & Vol. 2, a Batman graphic novel. Lucky for you, I don’t think I mention my vagina once. However, I do elude to the fact that it’s the topless version of Bookclub Bitches, and at one point FFJ gives [...]

The bitches are back

powered by ODEO Due to personal reasons, Bookclub Bitches went on hiatus for most of 2006. But now we’re back with a vow to actually do the podcast monthly. We’ll see how that goes. This month FFJ and I read Undead and Unwed by Mary Janice Davidson. It was horrible. Seriously one of the worst [...]

Bookclub Bitches Aug 06: Between the Bridge and the River

Afteer a few technical difficulties, FFJ and I finally managed to complete the August Edition of Bookclub Bitches. This month we discussed Craig Ferguson’s Between the Bridge and the River. We also talked about Gin and Tonic, having a face or writing, redemption, and the long dark journey of the soul. This is our second [...]

Bookclub Bitches Vol.1

FFJ and I have our very own podcast now. It’s called Bookclub Bitches, and for the BB Vol. 1 we read and discussed Fahrenheit 451
