What We're Reading/Listening to/Watching

Posted By Nicki Leone, Thursday, July 18, 2024

Linda-Marie BarrettLinda-Marie Barrett / Executive Director
Reading
: Slow Dance by Rainbow Rowell. Such a poignant and realistically complicated love story of two people in challenging family and economic dynamics who struggle to express the big love they've felt for each other since they were teens. Halfway through and rooting for them all the way.
Listening: Enjoying birdsong, the hum of my diffuser, and the occasional soothing music options on my Calm app.
Watching: Finally caught up to the end (for now) of Death in Paradise and looking for the next thing to binge on. When will The Great British Baking Show's next season begin?

Candice HuberCandice Huber / Membership:
Reading: About to crack The Z Word by Lindsay King-Miller for book club, but it's been hard to find time to read lately!
Listening
: Created a playlist called "Straight Bangers" of songs that I feel go pretty hard and make me bounce my head to that I've been quite enjoying.
Watching
: Finally finished my binge of The Vampire Diaries! I really enjoyed it!

Nicki LeoneNicki Leone / Communications:
Reading: Spreadsheets, mostly. Lots and lots of conference registration data.
Listening: Will the Circle Be Unbroken. I find that fiddle music is a good thing to read spreadsheets by. It keeps me awake. Unlike Bob Dylan, which brings me down and makes me lose my place.
Watching: I'm still watching the British Country Village channel, aka Midsomer Murders. I'm on season 4 of what, 283?

SP RankinSP Rankin / Website Administrator:
Reading: I think the closest I've come to reading in the last few weeks is dusting my growing stack of "after August 11" books. Which is a fib--I also haven't dusted anything in the last few weeks.
Listening: I've been revisiting The Jayhawks' 1996 album, Tomorrow the Green Grass. The last time I listened to it was on a cassette tape in my old Ford station wagon while waiting to pick up my kids from preschool.
Watching: House of the Dragon. It's fine, but I am disappointed in the lack of people calling each other "varlet" or "knave."

Andri RichardsonAndrea Richardson / Sales:
Reading: Just ordered myself a copy of Appalachian Reckoning (edited by Anthony Harkins and Meredith McCarroll) for no reason whatsoever...
Listening: Handsome Podcast, inspired by my "watching" response this week.
Watching: I just watched a great documentary called Outstanding: A Comedy Revolution on Netflix - it's about the history of LGBTQIA+ people in the history of comedy.
