About this listen

Some villains are misunderstood. Some are morally gray. And some? They’re your coworker who changed your font to Wingdings on a client report.

This week on Paperbacks and Paychecks, Sara and Noelle are diving deep into the villains we hate, the ones we low-key root for, and the ones we might actually be. From enemies-to-lovers tropes and fantasy moms with god complexes to workplace micromanagers, devil’s advocates, and HR horror stories nothing is off limits.

We’re talking:
– Fictional red flags we can't forgive
– Our own toxic traits (hello, stonewalling and stubbornness 👀)
– When leadership is the villain
– And yes, a Reddit story involving breast milk and a coffee request you won’t believe

Whether you're here for career catharsis, bookish chaos, or just want to feel better about your office politics, this one’s for you.
