Two friends talk about new release fiction and road-test the food within it... everything from Liane Moriarty's brownies in Apples Never Fall, and to the pickled pork in Hannah Kent's Devotion.

Join journalist, Alissa Warren and writer Sally Killoran as they delve into new release books mostly by Australian authors ... sometimes a bit late off the presses ... because between Alissa and Sally, they have seven kids under eleven and two dogs (one well-behaved, one not).

They talk food inspiration, feeding the circus and finding the good things amongst the chaos.

This monthly podcast is for fellow humble readers and hopeful cooks.
