Summary
This week, we're answering all your NYC questions — whether you live here and need a new spot for a girls night out or you want to plan the best visit ever, we have so many recs! But otherwise, everything sucks... Grace's computer saga continues, Becca has the flu, and we have a few haters. Thank goodness we have some good book recs to get us through!
Join us on August 22 for our next book club discussing Circe by Madeline Miller (and to see if Grace can figure out how to pronounce the title!)

| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone, welcome to Bad on Paper Podcast. I'm Becca Freeman and I'm Grace Atwood. |
| 0:23.8 | And I have a new voice brought to you by the flu. |
| 0:27.4 | Poor Becca. We'll talk all about it in-lose. |
| 0:30.2 | Yes. |
| 0:30.9 | But we should get into it. So today we're talking all about New York City. We got so many questions, |

| 1:24.0 | Second, I saw so many people on Instagram stories were talking about what an inspiration you are. |
| 1:29.8 | It sounded like people loved it. |

| 1:37.8 | Because I feel like a lot of people present at these things and are just like, |
| 1:41.7 | be authentic, take nice photos and people walk away and they don't learn anything. |
