Host Tayla is joined by Meghan Elizabeth Kallman and Josephine Ferorelli, co-authors of The Conceivable Future. They talk about escapist fiction, shows about people who are good at their jobs, and how the friendship gap affects wedding planning. In the second half of the show they dive into why Meghan and Josephine wrote a book about reproductive rights and climate change. In the Last Chapter they discuss: What is a quote or line from a book that’s always stuck with you?
