 The Book Club is Fake but the Talk is REAL! The F.A.B. Podcast serves cocktails while also serving up stories with a side dish of humor, a sprinkle of sarcasm, and an occasional expletive as garnish. Every hump day, tune in as Moni and Kat playfully and thoughtfully explore compelling books and topics as they relate to the human experience, filtered through the lens as black women in the midwest. Let each episode illustrate the power of storytelling and how it connects us all. This podcast is a reason for them to connect as friends, as individuals, and with their listeners. It’s like therapy you didn't know you needed...along with some laughs! You may come for the books but you'll stay for the vibes!!Copyright Moni & Kat アート 文学史・文学批評 社会科学

    Moni & Kat review "Yellowface" by R.F. Huang
    2025/12/18
    In this episode, our hosts dive into R.F. Kuang’s explosive novel Yellowface, a messy, chaotic, and painfully accurate takedown of the publishing world. The ladies unpack June Hayward’s wild decision to steal a dead woman’s manuscript, the delusion that carries her into literary fame, and the way the industry protects, rewards, and excuses certain voices over others.They break down the book’s themes of cultural appropriation, white feminism, internet backlash, and how far people will go to be seen as “the good one” while doing the absolute most. It’s sharp, it’s unhinged, and it had the ladies yelling at the pages. So pull up, grab your beverage, and get into this conversation. Cheers!

    2025/12/11
    Welcome back! In this episode, our hosts dive deep into Netflix’s explosive new docuseries Sean Combs: The Reckoning, executive-produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson and award winning director Alexandria Stapleton. The ladies break down the four-part series, unpack the allegations, explore the fallout, and ask the big question: is this accountability… or a high-budget revenge project? They’ll walk you through the doc’s most shocking moments, the legal issues, the cultural commentary, and the origin of the beef between Diddy and 50. They also examine how power, celebrity worship, and industry complicity created the perfect storm around Sean Combs, and why this show has everyone talking.
