Charmed.

And welcome back to let me ruin your life with me, Serena Shahidi.

Hello, how are you? I hope you're doing well.

I just wanted to do a quick little introduction because this is the first guest in many, many moons on here.

And hopefully not the last, but I'm very excited to be talking with a friend of the pod, a friend of mine,

and a returning guest, Marlo Granados, who is a fantastic writer, notably of the novel Happy Hour,

which I am such a big fan of, and just a fabulous and very interesting person.

So without further ado, Marlo.

Hello, Marlo. How are you?

I'm good. How are you? I've missed you.

I know I've missed you too.

What's been happening? What's been in the world?

Weirdly, I've had a busy day, which is very unlike me.

Disgusting.

With some people.
