On this week’s episode, we are continuing one of Dan and Ian‘s favorite traditions on the podcast.
Today we are talking about books and, in particular, the favorite books that we have read in the past year.
And continuing an annual tradition, we invited our good friend and talented author Kyla Gardner to share her recommendations too.
This conversation also details how some of our reading and social media habits have changed over the last 12 months, why Kyla has started writing fiction, and much more.
