  • A Glowing Recommendation | Radium Girls
    Oct 21 2025
    This week we consume quite a few books with special emphasis on Kate Moore's narrative non-fiction Radium Girls. We also meet Bibliophage's new cook in the literary kitchen, Jennifer Nance, reader, mom, and assistant extraordinaire. Seriously, she's just the best assistant an author and podcaster like Gwenna could ever have. Focused, encouraging, never misses a deadline or accidentally mass copies several brands. Assistance perfection in the shape of a middle-aged Oklahoma mom. No, Jennifer didn't write this show description. Why do you ask? Be sure to pre-order Gwenna's new book, Thinky Thoughts!
