Ep 53 Asking Each Other UNHINGED & JUICY questions + 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY Celebration! Artwork

Besties and the Books Podcast

We’re Ashley and Liz, two real-life besties who’ve loved books since we first learned to read, so naturally, we started a podcast! We would say the rest is history but in actuality, it's just the beginning. So come join us in the next chapter of our lives as we introduce ourselves, and laugh our way through the world of books with a focus on Fantasy, Romantasy, and Dark Romance. Of course we have love for all book genres, but those are our absolute favorites!

WE’RE ONE YEAR OLD! Today we’re celebrating our one year anniversary of podcasting over at Besties and the Books and we just want to say THANK YOU to each and every one of you for being here! You’re helping us to create this amazing community, and we couldn't be more grateful to watch it grow. 🖤

Check out the Thank You *GIVEAWAY* on our Instagram! | https://www.instagram.com/bestiesandthebookspodcast?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr

So in celebration we’ve decided to go into a blind Q&A with as many silly, unhinged, random questions we could think of to get to know each other, and for you guys to get to know your hosts even better.
If we could be trapped in an elevator with one real or fictional person for four hours, who would it be? What’s the best cereal? Would we repopulate the earth with a Skarsgard brother? If so, which one? What would we do if we found out we were married to robots? Stick around to hear us answer these pressing questions, and many more.

Plus, a faves and fails from our first year as podcasters, and a smash or pass with “embarrassing” childhood crushes. Oh… and as our big thank you to you, we’re doing a very special one year anniversary GIVEAWAY! Keep your eyes and ears peeled for the deets! 👀
