Tiana and friends are back for their final installments of The Testaments. We're breaking this final discussion up into two parts so you can really dive into it. Look for part two next week! How do they feel about the book in the end? Did Lydia win them over? Did Margaret Atwood capture the teenage voice? Can you drink leftover red wine? All shall be revealed in Pt 1 of the final episode of The Testaments Book Club!

Justin and Tiana LOVE scary movies. Tiana never gets to watch them and Justin...well he loves them but...well he's kinda scared of them. So they figured that the best solution was to watch them together and let YOU pick what they watch! It's the second annual Mayday Scary Movie Day featuring "The Conjuring" and "Freaks!" 

Pour yourself a glass of wine and join Mayday for the third installment of The Testaments Book Club series of podcasts. This week Tiana is joined by Angie and Leah to discuss the next 100 pages in the book. Enjoy!

It's the second episode of our book club podcasts cover The Testaments. Tiana, Sarah and Whitney breakdown the next 100 pages and give their thoughts on Lydia, Agnes and Daisy. Enjoy

Welcome to our intro to The Testaments book club. Over four episodes, covering about 100 pages per episode, we will be exploring the world of The Testaments, Margaret Atwood's sequel to The Handmaid's Tale.  This episode features an introduction to our book club members, our Mayday co-hosts Tiana and Sarah and special guests Whitney, Angie, and Leah. Plus they introduce us to and breakdown the three main characters, Agnes, Daisy, and Aunt Lydia from whose perspective The Testaments is told. Enjoy!

Editors, the unsung heroes of the film/tv world...and The Handmaid's Tale's Wendy Hallam-Martin is a great one. Her work on the show earned her an Emmy in 2018 and she's nominated once again in 2019. She talks to us about some of the ways editing shapes what we see on the screen and drops a bunch of fantastic fun facts about some of her favorite scenes from the show. It's great, great stuff! Enjoy.

Music nerds unite! Composer Adam Taylor, the man responsible for composing all that creepy, crawly and....occasionally...uplifting music that you hear on The Handmaid's Tale, joins Mayday for an interview. Learn about how he creates that music for the show, where he came from, what his influences are, and much much more! PLUS we bet you've heard his work in a couple other places and didn't even know it. Listen and enjoy!
