It’s Boozy Book Club time again! This week’s pick? “Jackpot” by Nic Stone, selected by Stephanie. This book has mystery, it has teenage drama, it has insight from inanimate objects! Full disclosure there are lots of spoilers and we may get passionate about why America needs better health care, but most importantly we discuss why you always need a friend around to hold up FRIENDLY or FLIRTING signs. And oh yeah…there is the brief return of LAWRENCE CHANEY!

Join Stephanie and Nell as they dive back into the BSC cannon. This one has so many thing — Ghost pate! Secret languages! Snooty girls! And the need to address and update how we speak and talk about people of color and people of disabilities!! We swear we still have fun and drink some fun cocktails too, but we did have to address THAT BOOK COVER.

As we gear up for the Drag Race US finale and we give Nell some time to unpack from her big move, we revisit our thoughts on the grand finale of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK Season 2 finale! And come on, don’t you want to hear Stephanie scream LLLLAAAAWWWWWRRRRENCE CHANEY one more time?! We’ll be back soon with our regularly scheduled poding.

GIRL! From Stoneybrook to RuPaul’s Drag Race UK there has been ALL. THE. SHADE! Nell and Stephanie discuss shiny, sparkly things, Jeff’s white male privilege (god, Jeff way to run off to California and not deal with your problems and abandon your mother!), and whether pageants are sexist or fun. So grab your basic bitch sauvignon blanc and get ready for a time!

The Boozy Book Club is back! We read one of Nell’s most favorite books from when she was just about as tall as Stephanie, “The Westing Game.” There are “Clue” references, Piper wears pajamas, and there may be the spark of some fan-fic based on a friendship between Karen Brewer and Turtle! Grab the book, grab a drink and read along.

We never thought there would be anything that could happen that would make us dislike the OG members of the BSC, but turns out they can be kinda awful when they begin the trials of Mallory Pike!

This episode is a bit of a rollercoaster as we debate the true color of Mallory’s hair (she’s a redhead goddamn it!), chat about how our girl Ann M. does not shy away from teaching kids racism is wrong (bless her!) and Stephanie can’t stop talking about her new favorite Glaswegian…LAWRENCE CHANEY!

You read the 12 Days of Boozy blog post (or you better have!), now get ready for the extras! Stephanie and Nell add a few more fun items into the mix that you won’t find out about anywhere else except on the pod. We’ve got more books! More booze! Food! Art! All the things you’ve come to expect from the BoozySitters.

Stacey is moving back to New York. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! What will the BSC do? We also dive into such hot topics as our love for Medium Brown Bag (hey Bloomies, we miss you!), what happens when you see a dude you really don’t want to be dating anymore in a wine bar and how to dissect a fictitious address off Central Park.

All the things you’ve come to expect from the BoozySitters.

If you didn’t know it before, you would know it now, we are PASSIONATE about art and despise BITCHES! With a few tangents along the way, we chat about “Claudia and the New Girl” and how your art being your pain makes it less fun for the rest of us. And lest we forget, it all comes back to the urinal…thanks, Marcel, thanks.

In this Boozy Book Club, we are supporting our favorite advocate of democracy Stacey Abrams by jumping into the texts of her nom de plume Selena Montgomery with “Never Tell.” Did we mention this is a romance? It’s a new genre for us both and we can’t say we are 100% sold, but we do love to support Stacey in any way we can! This is the first of a two-part book club so grab a copy and read along!

DOGS! Dogs, dogs because dogs. AAAANNNNNNND DEMOCRACY! This episode is more of a two act kind of deal.

ACT 1: We talk volunteering for democracy, thank the women of color who have fought so hard to make sure we all keep our rights and raise a glass of the McBride Sisters Winery “Black Girl Magic” to our new lord and savior Stacey Abrams

ACT 2: We won’t lie, shit gets a bit real. We have to pour one out for Louie, the best damn collie in the world plus a side detour into how we think baseball is the sport a woman could breakthrough as an athlete in the majors

In this week’s Boozy Extra we chat snacks, our small wins and then Nell does a TikTok. It’s short, it’s sweet and it’ll keep you giggling until the next full episode!

Need an escape? Join Stephanie and Nell as we talk about the second book in the Baby-sitters Club mystery series and wrap up our month of spooky content.  In this episode, we tackle xenophobia, winning at all costs, and bullies. Despite what you might think, it’s blissfully free of election discussion!

Watch (and sip) along with us! This episode we watched A Babysitter’s Guide To Monster Hunting on Netflix, and had many thoughts (and yelps, and maybe a scream or two).  So cue us up with your screen and hit play when we do. We think it’s the perfect addition to the BSC Cinematic Universe, and we can’t wait for the next piece of the puzzle.

As we continue to celebrate the spooky season, Stephanie and Nell shift from the traditional canon and dive into (and get angry at) The Baby-Sitters Club Mysteries! In this episode, we start at the beginning, and boy did we have some thoughts. We laughed, we ranted, we got drunk…so very drunk.

Things get spooky in this edition of the Boozy Book Club where we discuss A Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix! We get into all the details of how one singular vampire wreaks havoc on a the Charleston suburbs of Mount Pleasant. And oh yeah, we are pretty sauced up while we do it.

Mary Anne, Mary Anne, Mary Anne! Boy does she think she’s come out of her shell and even if she hasn’t it’s a-ok because Logan, the new boy in school, thinks she is the bee’s knees. We chat about even if you’re shy is running out on your first boy/girl party appropriate and reminisce about our own tween fashion.

This week’s Boozy Extra is the second installment of the Boozy Book Club! We don’t read the same books, but we talk about the ones we have (or may not have) finished. We may or may not also talk about Game of Thrones, Bunga Bunga, and other book adjacent things.
