Hello out there, all you stoic captains and feisty CEOs! In this episode, Shannon very patiently listens while Shandy gushes about her trip to The Ripped Bodice. We'll also discuss category romance, the Korean drama that's owning Shannon's life, and how the universe just doesn't want us to stop talking about alphas.
