You won't want to miss the quirky charm of Jor and Fab as we kick off this week's The Bookish Hour with tales from my spontaneous leap into a local 10k run, sprained knee and all. Amid discussing the camaraderie of the running community, we can't help but dive headfirst into the emotional rollercoaster that is Taylor Swift's latest album. Swifties and casual listeners alike will revel in our breakdown of the drama-infused lyrics, especially the mythical echoes in "Cassandra."
Strap on your running shoes, or in Fab's case, a knee brace, as we journey through the music that fuels our strides and the cinematic inspirations behind hit music videos. This week's chat veers from the talent in the Hawke family to a lighthearted generational debate, before landing in the engrossing world of "The Good Wife." Plus, we'll regale you with the comedic saga of our foray into tanning and the untimely dental emergency that followed, proving life's script is often penned by Murphy's Law.
Finally, as Jor prepare for a European adventure, we unpack the art and science of packing—because who doesn't love a challenge that involves strategically rolling clothes and playing Tetris with a suitcase? We also muse over our caffeine preferences to combat jet lag, with a nod to the comforting rituals of coffee and tea that make anywhere feel like home. So, whether you're prepping for a trip or just seeking a dose of laughter, grab your passport—or your toothbrush—and tune in to this episode for a joyride through life's unexpected twists and turns.
