Welcome to the Bear Marriage podcast. I'm Sheila Ray Gregor from Bear Marriage.com

When we like to talk about healthy evidence-based biblical advice for your sex life and your marriage.

And today is actually

the last episode of season eight of the bear marriage podcast. We're going to be taking July off.

And so Keith and I are on vacation. We are camping. I'm filming this before we leave. We are in the

middle of camping in our RV and just relaxing and having some much needed downtime.

And so I'm actually going to turn this podcast over to Rebecca and Joanna, who are going to do something kind of different.

They're going to talk about something that we talk about on an almost daily basis, but isn't necessarily part of the normal research that we do.

But it's just our love of fiction and

how much we think fiction can enhance your life, enhance your marriage, and make you see things

in a different way. And so as we're heading into the summer when hopefully people will have

more time to read fiction, no matter what is going on in the world, as the world is increasingly

chaotic, fiction can often

help point us the way through. So without further ado, here are Rebecca and Joanna.

All right. I am excited about this one, because this is the series area where it's near the end

of what we do for the year. And so we just get to kind of do whatever we want.

And no one gets to complain.

So if you're sitting there wanting to complain because we're not talking about sex today, don't.

You don't get to.

That's not what this part of the series, the season of the podcast is about.

This is about Rebecca, getting to do whatever Rebecca wants and everyone puts up with it.

That sounds good to me. Yeah, exactly. So we're talking about fiction today. So I have Joanna
