| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody and welcome to Books Unbound, the podcast where we unbind books to get to their hearts with your hosts, me. It's Ariel and... |
| 0:17.1 | Me, Raylene. I'm a bit of a mess today. Raylene is really bearing with me and I'm very grateful. |
| 0:23.3 | I will admit that I was in the midst of a Animal Crossing Haze, had no idea what was going on around me and asked my boyfriend, what time is it? |
| 0:32.3 | And he was like, 533. And I was like, well, I'm late. |
| 0:36.2 | Gotta go. So here we are for another episode. Really glad to, I'm late. Gotta go. |
| 0:40.0 | So here we are for another episode. |
| 0:41.3 | Really glad to be here, though. |
| 0:43.3 | We always love recording these. |
| 0:44.3 | I was going to say filming them. |

| 1:12.1 | pumpkin patch being so crazy and unrealistic. However, we got emails from Alicia and Nicole who told |
| 1:18.4 | us that pumpkin heads is based on a real place. Not necessarily. I mean, I think someone said |
| 1:25.2 | there was a note in the back of the book that Rainbow Ralph said it wasn't specifically based on any one place, but both of them referenced the specific pumpkin patch that it's very similar to. So I believe that it is based on that place. And it's called Vala's pumpkin patch and it's in Omaha, Nebraska. So apparently it's exactly like the pumpkin patch from the book. It's open like all of September |
