Mrs. Pearlmania read Bob the Drag Queen's new novel "Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert." This incredible imaginary work tackles what would happen if Harriet Tubman came back from the past to start a Hip-Hop career in the modern day.

This novel gave us so much joy, history, laughter, context, and more.

I wqs having kind of a shitty day, getting over a cold, detailed to work in another city on a 15 mile walking route, it's raining, and this is giving me everything I need to get home to Lady Stache and Baby Stache in a good mood.

Why was I thinking it was going to be “story time” 🤣 Such a solid choice this month! I heard him talking about his book on “Lovett or Leaveit” last weekend AND GOT ALL THE MORE EXCITED FOR THIS EPISODE LETS FUCKIN GOOOO

I listened to this book last week and was laughing so hard my wife was like WTF. I agree musical, or movie and we might need Tubi on this based on the outrageous monologues and quips! DJ Quakes story is absolutely insane.

This ep came out right as I was starting my shift and as much as I love listening to the pod on company time, I had to wait until I got home because I want to listen without any office dingdongs interrupting me. Finally!!

I actually read this one in advance! (Wanted to read it anyway) so Story Report will always be Book Club for me. ☺️

Idk if yall know but here in Texas juneteenth is celebrated because the slaves in texas didn't find out they were free for a whole year after the war was over. Never knew about Maryland and Delaware though, Loved this episode. Gonna add the book to my audible list!

The way I was screaming texas because juneteenth is texan. It is when the news came to Galveston. It's just the texan in me is disgruntled from you disrespecting the state where everything is bigger and better except the education... healthcare... empathy... but like anyways juneteeth is a fucking great holiday

I didn’t want to stop listening last night but I fell asleep like 15-20 min before the episode was over. 😂 so just finished it. I’m ABSOLUTELY adding this book to my audible list lol.

I bought the audio book because I really wanted to hear the songs and your retelling was good but I had to hear the whole book. Idk if anyone feels the same to me this novel would make an awesome Broadway play!

Most audio books are almost $40 but I was pleasantly surprised this one 14.99 and it made it accessible for me to buy. 🙃

After listening to this episode I bought a digital copy for my Nook, and have told multiple people both about the book and this episode.

Currently listening to the audiobook at work and some parts are really moving and I gotta cry in the walk in a little bit.

Thanksitscrochet

I just finished listening to the audiobook and it was so dang good! The songs at the end were great.
