Episode 117: Just Dial 662-STPH

We're so excited to have comedian, writer, and HUGE Blume Head Molly Sanchez in the Cocoon to cover chapters 21-23 of Judy Blume's "Just as Long as We're Together"! Jody and Molly go deep into D-I-V-O-R-C-E, depression eating, erotic fan fic, A/S/L chat room memories, and tween fantasy crushes. Molly reads an old diary entry, in which her horny 14-year-old self proclaims her penchant for Harry Potter fan fiction and laments about being a (gasp!) virgin. In the book, Steph's dad drops in for Thanksgiving and her parents deal some extremely upsetting news. Poor Steph! She spends the holiday weekend sleeping and clearing out the kitchen (who can blame her?!) and tells a fib to Rachel and Alison. Just what this friend group needs – MORE SECRETS! Blume Head Erin and her talking pup Poppy present their own Special Report on Little Shop of Horrors, giving Maizie a real run for her money. And big thank you to our newest Patron, Rachel! Be sure to follow Molly Sanchez on Twitter @seriousmolly and on Instagram @mollyfuckingsanchez. Check out her podcasts Red All Over and Failure to Launch at stitcher.com/podcast/red-all-over and soundcloud.com/failure_to_launch_podcast. Lastly, don't miss Homewreck: A Shipwreck Fundraiser! On 4/17 Molly and other writers will be competing in an Emma fan fic write-off and it's gonna be amazing! booksmith.com/event/homewreck-shipwreck-fundraiser
