The Book Club is Fake but the Talk is REAL! The F.A.B. Podcast serves cocktails while also serving up stories with a side dish of humor, a sprinkle of sarcasm, and an occasional expletive as garnish. Every hump day, tune in as Moni and Kat playfully and thoughtfully explore compelling books and topics as they relate to the human experience, filtered through the lens as black women in the midwest. Let each episode illustrate the power of storytelling and how it connects us all. This podcast is a reason for them to connect as friends, as individuals, and with their listeners. It’s like therapy you didn't know you needed...along with some laughs! You may come for the books but you'll stay for the vibes!!Copyright Moni & Kat Arte Ciencias Sociales Historia y Crítica Literaria

  • Moni & Kat review: "Sinners"
    May 15 2025
    Welcome back F.A.B. FAM. This week the ladies sink thier teeth into Ryan Cooglers first original film and instant classic, Sinners! Sinners is a genre-blending horror set in 1932 Mississippi. This haunting tale follows twin brothers returning home to escape their past—only to find something far darker waiting for them... Vampires! As always, the crew pulls no punches, unpacking the film’s rich themes: the duality of human nature, the eternal struggle between good and evil, and how racism itself is a real-life horror story. Tune in for a conversation that’s as gripping as the film. You won’t want to miss this one.
