Join Jessica and Erin for Episode 8 of Midshelf. We discuss the engaging thriller Burn It All by Maggie Auffarth as we drink our spicy Firecracker cocktails way too fast! Make yourself a drink, and come along for the ride! Special Thanks to Jay McPherson for the newly remastered theme song. We've clearly moved to a swankier jazz club for our opening.
