EyeCode MediaBookNerds: The Stress Paradox
In this episode of The Book Nerds Podcast, Aaron, Brianna, and Kyle dive into The Stress Paradox by Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist — exploring why stress isn’t the enemy we think it is. From redefining “good stress” to balancing life’s pressures with purpose, they connect insights on biology, mindset, and leadership with their own lives and practices. The conversation touches on fasting, cold plunges, resilience, and how embracing discomfort drives growth.

Mallory Veridian's solution is to blast off to space, to a space station called Eternity. Greetings booknerds! In this episode, Honey and DIana talk about a sci-fi cozy mystery called Station Eternity by Mur Lafferty.

2023-02-1746 minOur Nerdiest ThingEpisode 17: Heavy Petting in the ClosetWelcome to episode 17, Nerds! This week, we are discussing chapters 41-43 of “A Court of Thorns & Roses” by @therealsjmaas. This episode takes place under the mountain where Tamlin is trying to get busy with Feyre instead of helping her escape. Really, Tamlin?
We’ll also be discussing the power of music and ponder if Amarantha was suffering from prolonged grief disorder. Deb even feels bad for her for a few minutes!

2023-02-071h 29Our Nerdiest ThingEpisode 16: Why, Oh Why, Didn’t Anyone Teach Feyre to Read?!Hey, nerds! In this episode, we are discussing chapters 39-40 from “A Court of Thorns & Roses” by @therealsjmaas . Since no one had the foresight to teach Feyre to read, she finds Lucien and herself in mortal peril as she tries to complete the second trial.
We also chat Feyre’s third trial and how it compares to Psyche’s trials in Greek mythology, what drinking profusely does to your brain, and Midsommar festival! It’s about to get really nerdy, folks!

This section of the book is all about the Wyrm trial (terrifying BTW), which is very similar to those of the Roman gladiators. To lighten things up, Mindy tells us what urbandictionary.com has to say about Rhysand. It’s laugh out loud funny and quite weird. We hope you’ll listen in!

About the book
Most of us are slaves to what has been described as the monkey mind. Driven by the illusion of unrealistic dreams and expectations, and the need for external validation, we are constantly caught in a tug-of-war between our inner life and the external universe. Samir Soni too has spent a lifetime oscillating between these two worlds, agonizing over the golden mean to strive for. He found it by experimenting with silence, turning to his diary as a companion in this jo...
