S02.43: Daring & the Duke: It's Grace and Ewan Week!

Sarah has a new book out, so Jen is playing host this week, and Sarah is playing guest, and Jen is really outrageously good at it…move over Terry Gross! Find Daring & the Duke wherever books are sold, including Amazon , Kobo , B&N , Apple Books , Books-a-Million , or at your local indie via Bookshop.org . Show Notes You can listen to all of our walk-up music suggestions on the Fated Mates Spotify playlist . But in case you've never seen The Music Man, the song Marian the Librarian is very cute. Sarah wants to be a guest on Fresh Air . (Jen obviously does, too, but has to actual cause to be interviewed. So #TeamSarah.) Do we know anyone who knows Terry Gross ? If you can't wait, you can listen to us on the Deerfield Public Libary podcast , but we're going to drop it into our own feed later this month. So no worries. Jen thinks Sarah is in her imperial period --a phrase Jen learned from listening to the Hit Parade podcast . The past year have had some great books about rage and feminism: The Seven Necessary Sins for Women and Girls , Good and Mad , and Hood Feminism are three we recommend. We put children in factories all day , so of course kids fought, too. Sarah recommends The Fair Fight , a historical novel, about bareknuckle fighting kids. Statler & Waldorf are the two old dudes up on the balcony during The Muppet Show . The Victorian Age wasn't so great for women and other marginalized people . That Jeffrey Epstein documentary is on Netflix. Ewan's year-long break was inspired by The Player . The myth of Apollo and Cyrene , and also a little about neo-classicism . One of our favorite myth retellings of the past few years, is Circe by Madeline Miller . Jessica Avery presented a paper at the Popular Culture Association about mythology in Sarah's books . The Master's Tools will Never Dismantle the Master's House is the name of the essay by Audre Lorde. You should read it.
