  • Yapisode 5: The Wizard of Oz
    Nov 5 2025

    Hannah leads Haley on a tornadic journey into L. Frank Baum's classic, the Wizard of Oz. This is the first yapisode in which you'll see the Hannah's vision board, to give you a peek at the whirlwind inside her mind.

    An enlightening review of this classic, highlighting all the ways the movie differed from the book, though half of the Yap City duo expresses her appreciation for James Franco's take on the yellow brick road.

    As usual, requests for edits were ignored. Producer Joe is pretty unreliable. #FirstAmendment #YOLO

  • Yapisode 4: Frankenstein (The Modern Prometheus)
    Oct 21 2025

    To honor the spooky season in Halloween, Texas, Haley introduces Frankenstein by English author, Mary Shelley.

    The Yap Sisters discuss the fact that Shelley began writing Frankenstein at age 18 before it was published when she was 20. They talk about themes of the book and having to research "Prometheus" (or not). Haley explains the common misunderstandings about Frankenstein and Hannah gets got.

    The two play a new game Haley invented, "Real or Fakenstein."

    Joe edited nothing. #FirstAmendment #YOLO

  • Yapisode 3: The Road
    Oct 7 2025

    Hannah brings Cormac McCarthy's 2006 post-apocalyptic novel, THE ROAD to the podcast.

    Not to be confused with Stephen King's 1979 dystopian horror novel, THE LONG WALK. Or Stephen King's 1996 serial novel, THE GREEN MILE.

    The theme is "gray," which seems appropriate.
