Sisters Smokes and Stories...Get high on tales with us! This podcast is not a true literary review of books, this is a lighthearted, and hopefully funny, look at popular books to help us dive into worlds of make believe. We enhance this conversation with recreational herbal refreshment while recreating the scenes and our reactions. Imagine a ”Drunk History” but more ”High Fantasy.” Hope you enjoy!
Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole unpack sewer-scented strategy, battle prep via bang, and why inspirational speeches hit different when you’re crusted in feces. There are tattooed maps, mystery aunts, a maybe-naked Nyaxia who is definitely not thrilled her husband’s teeth were turned into a cursed necklace, all while Araya casually — and very slowly — strolls through destiny a...
Join us for the next episode of High Tails with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole dive into Araya’s vampire trauma, magic struggles, and a wing massage that’s definitely not just physical therapy. We explore the emotional wreckage of murdery dads, manipulative gods, magical breakdowns, and the kind of shirtless vulnerability you only get from emotionally unavailable vampires. Somewhere between unpacking vampire politics and ...
Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, as they dive into the creepy vampire baby town of La Whore™ (yes, we said it), debate who keeps god teeth and why that’s horrifying, and try to redefine murder—well, Nicole does, while defending Raihn with the passion of a morally confused public defender. Marisa is still mad (rightfully), but has downgraded Raihn from “enemy of the state” to “doghouse occupant.” We also host a much-needed s...
Join us for the final episode of Serpent and the Wings of Night on High Tails with the Lit Sisters, where the blood trials are brutal, the entrails are flying, and somehow no one has showered. Araya's in denial, Raihn is too hot to cancel (but Marisa’s trying), and Nicole is busy mediating with 30 internal voices and a fistful of emotional coping strategies. We’ve got vampire warfare, ill-timed horniness, logic vs. chaos, and just ...
Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, for an episode full of vampire drama, magical anxiety, and emotionally questionable monarchs. Nicole’s one blood drop away from becoming Raihn’s vampire wife, while Marisa just wants to be an off-grid immortal sipping deer blood and minding her business. There’s terrible beer, suspicious alliances, a minister who definitely needs to be reported to supernatural HR—and, somehow, Ibrahim, who c...
Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where sisters Marisa and Nicole dive fang-first into Serpent and the Wings of Night! We debate wing aesthetics, expose our Dad’s iPhone farm, dodge murder demons, and maybe start a vampire parenting critique group. One lone human enters the vampire death games—no fangs, no magic, no night vision, and a human smell even the flesh sack minister can’t resist. One thing’s...
Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, for a much-needed palate cleanser as they dig into The Measure… and accidentally spend more time on grudges than the actual book. There’s fake forgiveness, petty Facebook stalking, high school drama, and just enough short-stringer talk to technically call this a book episode. Is Nicole rooting for your downfall? Only if you burned her without a heartfelt goodbye and a signed affidavit of gro...
Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole dive headfirst into Rebecca Yarros’ chaos web of dragon eggs, memory-wipes, and emotionally unstable men. With zero facts but 100% conviction, they accidentally rewrite the entire Empyrean series, and it's pretty good. Theories range from “plausible” to “Rebecca would sue us if she heard this.” Expect live sound effects, shared delusions, and e...
Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole wade into the emotional wreckage of the Onyx Storm finale. Violet is either passed out, crying, being bathed like a Victorian invalid, or slowly connecting clues with the speed of a drunk conspiracy theorist. Mira’s bleeding (again), Brennan’s buckling under his martyr complex, and Bodhi’s one dramatic monologue away from quitting the rebellion...
Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where Marisa and Nicole spiral into dragon elitism, dream invasions, awkward lingerie deliveries, and exactly how many lightning bolts it takes to say “I love you.” The Lit Sisters cannot agree on which isle they’d survive (Nicole chooses the creepy carnival, Marisa hides in a library), what “worshipping” really means, or how many weapons is too many for bedroom decor...
Join us for the next episode of High Tales with the Lit Sisters, where your favorite book-loving duo, Marisa and Nicole, leave the cabin but bring the chaos. This week’s mission: diplomatic drama and dragon-sized dysfunction across the isles. There’s a full-blown international meltdown, Xaden fights for his life, Violet’s compass is as lost as she is, and Dain gets slapped straight into character development. You’ll laugh, you’ll s...
Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, as they debate whether Xaden’s intense love language is swoon-worthy or just plain extra. He is giving “I’m a tortured soul with a tragic past” energy, and honestly, it's exhausting in the best way. Violet’s dodging venin and trying not to die while Xaden’s busy making grand romantic declarations and picking fights with Princes. Meanwhile, Riddick’s comedic timing is on point, and Mira’s out...
The Lit Sisters are back, and this time they’re tackling the first 14 chapters of Onyx Storm. Xaden’s teaching now (hello, Professor Hot Pants), Violet’s casually committing treason before breakfast, and there’s a dramatic villain monologue — because exposition is important. Oh, and let’s not forget the knee injury so gnarly even Brennan was like, "Ew." Spoiler alert: It’s a hot mess — but the fun kind. Plus, Riddick’s carrying thi...
Join the Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, as we spiral into full-blown emotional distress over the ending of Iron Flame! We tried to stay on topic, but somehow ended up debating trademark law (can we get sued for this?), the meaning of trust (Xaden, explain yourself), and whether dragon-powered therapy is covered by insurance. The wards may be up, but our sanity is gone—thanks to battles, betrayals, and that ending. Tune in, scream ...
Your favorite Lit Sisters, Marisa and Nicole, are back to unpack Iron Flame's mind-blowing reveals, epic fights, and just the right amount of sarcasm. We’ve got surprise second signets, dragons with grudges, and a rival-to-bestie pipeline that no one saw coming. Also, can we talk about how Andarna is consistently trying to prove she’s not a baby anymore. Buckle up— in Andarna's Baby Bjorn, it’s a messy, magical, and mildly concerni...
Join us for the latest chaos on High Tales with the Lit Sisters as Marisa and Nicole navigate betrayals, torture, and a whole lot of lightning. This week, Xaden is in full “I will burn the world for you” mode, Dain makes a surprising comeback (who saw that coming?), and Violet channels her inner Zeus. Also surprise, General Mom has layers?! There is a dramatic Griffin-Dragon showdown, an unexpected punch to the face, and a whole lo...
Ah, the sweet scent of betrayal, backhanded compliments, and whatever the hell that interrogation room smelled like. This week, the Lit Sisters dive into the latest chaos—Dain still doesn’t get the hint, Xaden is totally not jealous (except he absolutely is), and Violet has approximately 0.2 seconds of peace before danger inevitably finds her. Meanwhile, the squad finally learns the truth, a jacket nearly ends Violet’s entire caree...
Join the Lit Sisters as Marisa and Nicole dive into the first part of Iron Flame, where Violet juggles assassination attempts, forced survival training, and the world’s pettiest situationship. We debate whether omissions are lies (they are), Tairn establishes himself as the ultimate dragon dad, and Xaden gets shirtless in a fight—so really, everyone wins. Plus, Violet may be too good at poisoning people. It’s non-stop action, drama...
Tune in as the Lit Sisters spiral through the explosive Fourth Wing finale—because wow, did we not see that coming. Nicole is fuming over all the avoidable drama, Marisa is dramatically staring out of windows like she’s in a music video, and both are questioning their life choices (and Rebecca Yarros’). The dragons remain the only ones making good decisions, while the humans are out here breaking trust, furniture, and possibly the ...
What do you get when you mix one grumpy dragon, a ridiculous amount of attempted murder, and a lust-induced existential crisis? Apparently, just another week at Basgiath War College. In this episode, Nicole and Marisa break down Violet’s latest adventures, including navigating Dain’s emotional baggage, Xaden’s very inconvenient hotness, and the fact that she keeps surviving assassination attempts like it’s a hobby. Also, best writt...
If you've ever wanted to know about champagne, satanism, the Stonewall Uprising, chaos theory, LSD, El Nino, true crime and Rosa Parks, then look no further. Josh and Chuck have you covered.
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
