6. Booked on...Discrimination

1h 44m · Booked On A Feeling · 14 Sep 17:19

"We hold these truths to be self-evident..." And no, we aren't referencing the Schuyler Sisters here! But sadly, some truths are harder to stomach than others.

Cory & Cobi decided this week to discuss books that cover the heavy topic of racism, both during and after the Civil Rights Movement, which is a fight still being fought today! So sit back, listen as we tell the stories of the embattled, and hopefully we will all come away with a broader understanding of those around us.

***Trigger warning*** because life is full of them, and because these truths need to be discussed if we want to create the positive change we desperately need.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts also to the authors we featured. You folx rock! Works linked below.

10. Booked on...Cobi's Adventure

It's Choose Your Own Adventure week here at #BOAFcast and we thought we'd treat our awesome listeners to some original Adventures written by Cory & Cobi themselves!

Or maybe it's a trick! You'll have to listen to find out. And if you're still on the fence, just remember that the Illuminati is watching. . .

P.S. Keanu Reeves is a national treasure and and if you want to hear Cory tell Cobi this on at least three occasions then you're welcome and he's not sorry.

9. Booked on...Greek Myths

DID YOU KNOW that "Hold my beer." was originally coined by the Greek gods in their attempts to out-bet one another? Crazy, huh?

Also did you know that 'God' spelled backwards is 'doG'? We bet that little kibble bit blew your mind. Dang! Look at us, makin' bets just like those no good Greek deities. Shame.

In this episode of Booked on a Feeling Cory & Cobi uncover the illicit gambling ring the Grecians have been bow(wow)ing to for all these years as we review books rooted in Greek mythology. And we apologize for Cobi's inane attempt to pronounce people's names. It all might as well be dog speak for the good it did us!

Heaps of praise must be bestowed upon the authors we featured. Their works simply leapt from the pages and know no bounds. . .human or otherwise!

8. Booked on...The Middle Child

Give us our very own theme song, a werewolf named Brock, and an anfractuous story. . .and what do you have??

Why, this week's episode of Booked on a Feeling, of course! #BOAFcast

Cobi risked her sanity while Cory *ahem* cheated a little on the assignment. They both chose the middle book of trilogies and dove right in. If you think that's ridiculous then you'd be right! But who cares about the first child or the third? It's the middle child who always wreaks just the right amount of havoc!

While (in Cobi's case) we can't say we understood what was going on, we still enjoyed the work covered! Special thank you to the authors!
