This is a very long episode because this book is so dense! Trueheart kills a man (but does he?), McNab is shot with a stunner and is now paralyzed on his right side, Feeney is taken hostage, Peabody is hurt, Eve and Roarke being on opposite sides in the whole [...]
This week, AJ, Jen and Tara are on vacation, so we are re-playing an episode that we recorded with Heidi and Emily of the podcast “Romancing the Shelf”!! However, while they (wisely) cut out all the superfluous and boring parts of our recording, we have kept all that in! For [...]
This week on our show we're talking about Tara's favorite subject: sorting people into their Hogwarts houses! Which house would Eve and Roarke be in? Who's a Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin? Who's a Muggle? Who's a Squib? Find out what we think in this episode!
We're back with another We Review the Reviews, this time for "Reunion"! We learn so much with these reviews like: Eve Dallas is no Stephanie Plum, There's no sex in this book, there's too much sex in this book as well as "Bad, Bad, Language," and Roarke says weird shit [...]
AJ and Jen are on their own again this week and because we both read Nora Roberts' "Legacy," we decided to break from our normal podcast and do a review of a Nora Roberts book! Let us say up front, that when it comes to characters and dialog and cute [...]
Does Roarke have a first name? Will Eve and Roarke have a baby? Is Eve’s father really her father? Is he still alive? Does Roarke wear boxers or briefs? When does Eve have time to shave her legs? Is Eve turning into a dirty cop? Is Roarke pussywhipped/circumcised/too perfect? Does [...]
We feel like Nora celebrated this occasion by writing a book that gives the fans a present: Everything they love about this series crammed into one book: A great case; Eve giving Peabody the chance to investigate a cold case; Peabody's parents are in town; the first mention of the [...]
In this episode, we talk about a subject suggested by listener Mary, who called the number: The people that intimidate Eve. There are really only a few people that we know of that intimidate Eve: Mrs. Whitney, Trina and Mira’s Admin. We talk about the reasons why she may be [...]
Here we are again with another "We Review the Reviews Episode" where we find out that: people need to pay more attention when reading a book set in the future, nobody gets away with calling John Keats "stupid," Eve is horrible for needing extra care, and Roarke is horrible for [...]
You know how you'll be listening to the radio or iTunes or Spotify, or whatever music service you have, and a song will come on and you will immediately think about Eve and Roarke? Or, Peabody and McNab? Or you think, "I could see Mavis doing a cover of this [...]
We're reviewing "Seduction in Death" and so much happens in this book! Apart from the really creepy murders, Peabody and McNab are working on solidifying their relationship, Charles and Louise meet for the first time, Eve finding out that she gave $3 Million to Louise's clinic and finding out about [...]
This week we talk about The Button! One of the best romantic plot devices that Nora has ever created for any of her books ever. There are many button moments, and we talk about some of our favorites and some of our listener's favorites. We talk about those things (like [...]
With these reviews, we learn a lot in this episode, including: Sex scenes are "done to death," Susan Ericksen is an amazing reader, and if you don't think so, maybe YOU are the Worst. Reader. Ever. Some readers found this book Boring, Boring. Regular Nora Roberts novels have little to [...]
Well, everyone, you asked for it, and now you have it. Our "Closet Fairy" episode! One thing we learn here is that AJ and Tara know nothing about clothes, but Jen does! At the very least, Jen knows what "Stitch Fix" is! We take a look at the many times that [...]
Even though this book is very short, a LOT happens in a short time. We find out some details about Roarke's father, and there's a chance that Patrick Roarke was in Dallas at the same time that Eve's father was. Is that too much of a coincidence? Maybe, but we [...]
We talk to author Judy Kentrus about how Eve and Roarke might solve a murder in historical time. We talk about Eve and Roarke as Wild West characters and Pirates. Also: Judy answers our fan questions, and we find out that she has a collection of one of the things [...]
Faithless in Death was a book that deals with some really heavy subjects, and pushes some political hot buttons during a time when people are extra sensitive at having their political hot buttons pushed. So, because of that, the first half hour or so of this show, we take time [...]
This week we have an episode that we put together at the last minute for reasons that will be explained in the episode. So, in this episode, we talk about the various book covers from the J.D. Robb "In Death" series. Mostly, we are looking at what we would call [...]
This book is about a crazy Handmaids Tale-like cult. This is about power and control, but it's also about freedom, mostly because a lot of what happened in this book happened because of people trying to get out from under that power and control or... trying to find, get or [...]
We're taking on the topic of the Rumor that Wouldn't Die, also known as "Nora Roberts Must Have Ghost Writers." This rumor is ridiculous and stupid, and people need to stop spreading it. We read a review of "Shadows in Death" that came out after we did our "We Review [...]
We’re back with one of our most popular topics: We Review the Reviews! This time, we are reviewing the reviews of Betrayal in Death! Mostly all stuff that we hear all the time like Eve is unlikeable and there are gratuitous sex scenes, and the books are not realistic. Also, [...]
Those of you who have listened to this show from the beginning will know that from episode one, a goal of this podcast was to eventually be able to talk with Susan Ericksen since both AJ and Tara are such huge fans of her work. This week, it happened!!! As [...]
This week, we review Betrayal in Death! In this one, everyone is betraying everyone, and both Roarke and Peabody are feeling all the feels and need some TLC from Eve. Jen goes off on a rant about this latest conflict between Peabody and McNab and how it's 100% Peabody's fault, [...]
On this episode we talk about a topic that was suggested by listener Jennifer when she CALLED THE NUMBER!! "Eve-isms" are the things that Eve says where she's maybe mixing metaphors or not understanding pop culture references. Though, lately, Eve has said that she might be mixing metaphors or other [...]
On this weeks episode we have a special guest, AJ's daughter Caitlin Arend! Caitlin is an actor, singer, cosplayer, and and owner of All Aglow Parties and Events in Southern California. On today's episode, Caitlin is putting her Theater training to work by helping us evaluate Audiobook narrators! AJ and [...]

Happy New Year, Everyone! Hey Everyone! This week, we’re bringing you the first of three “Podcast in Death Outtakes” Episodes! As you all know, we tend to talk a LOT, so we have a lot of outtakes. Most of those are off topic, but occasionally, we have on [...]
Happy Holidays, Everyone! We hope you are having a great holiday season so far! Since this episode is being released on Christmas Day, we thought: what better topic to cover on Christmas than GIFTS!! We talk about giving and receiving gifts, both personally and in the "In Death" series. There [...]
This week’s episode is kind of a two-parter! The first part we recorded in October, meaning to play it while we were on our holiday vacation. But, a few topics came up between October and December, so we recorded an addendum to this episode to address all of those. In [...]
