When Does a Book Become a Cash Grab?

April 23, 2026 · 1 h 9 min

Show notes

Soman and Victoria argue over what defines a cash grab and whether artists need to justify their work. They also debate approaches to imposter syndrome and what to do if you’re not feeling connected to a project anymore. Victoria is reconsidering her fashion for Book Con, and Soman wants to take PLOT TWIST on a national tour!
