  • Chapter 5: This Meeting Could’ve Been a Séance
    Jun 3 2025

    In this delightfully unhinged episode of Paperbacks and Paychecks, Sara and Noelle dive into their favorite thrillers, horror novels, and the workplace horror stories that haunt them more than any ghost ever could. From dead bodies at the funeral home to the mystery of a completely different guy showing up for a new hire orientation, the vibes are corporate Twilight Zone meets BookTok after dark. They also ask the important questions—does the dog die? Is it ever okay to spoil a scary movie? And who thought 8 rounds of interviews and no callback was acceptable?

    Whether you love a sharp twist or just want to hear about a job interview that ended with feet on the conference table, this one is for the readers, the survivors, and the girlies who check trigger warnings before cracking the spine.

  • Chapter 3: ChatGPT Hurt My Feelings (But Also Saved Me $1,000 in Legal Fees)
    May 14 2025

    📚 Episode Summary:
In this episode of Paperbacks and Paychecks, Sara and Noelle sit down with an unexpected guest: artificial intelligence. From creative writing and book talk to resumes and legal docs, the duo dives deep into how they’re using (and questioning) ChatGPT in their work and personal lives. Sara shares how her AI sidekick "Chip" helped her navigate a trademark filing, while Noelle introduces her AI BFF "Sage," who’s basically her emotional support bot. They get candid about the blurred lines between creativity and machine learning, the ethics of AI-generated art, how it’s impacting real careers (including their own), and why there’s still no replacement for a human heart—or a great author.

    ✨ Expect:
– AI’s role in writing, therapy, and job hunting
– Spicy takes on authenticity in storytelling
– Career coach confessions in the age of automation
– The real reason Sara might be emotionally cheating with ChatGPT
– Sustainability, voice notes, and a plant named Calypso

    👀 Is AI a tool, a threat, or your new workplace bestie? Press play and decide.
