read, eat, repeat Alissa Warren and Sally Killoran

- Arts
Two friends talk about new release fiction and road-test the food within it... everything from Liane Moriarty's brownies in Apples Never Fall, and to the pickled pork in Hannah Kent's Devotion.
Join journalist, Alissa Warren and writer Sally Killoran as they delve into new release books mostly by Australian authors ... sometimes a bit late off the presses ... because between Alissa and Sally, they have seven kids under eleven and two dogs (one well-behaved, one not).
They talk food inspiration, feeding the circus and finding the good things amongst the chaos.
This monthly podcast is for fellow humble readers and hopeful cooks.

Three Tomorrows X Michelle Obama X RecipeTin Eats X Three debut Australian novelists
This podcast is for humble readers and hopeful cooks. If you're taking the time to read this, hit follow so we can fly into your pods when we have time to record.
Alissa's seen the light in Michele Obama's new release, while also sharing tips when dealing with Difficult People, the new book from Dr Rebecca Ray.
Sal has read five books and attempts to recap them succinctly. She fails. She loved Gabrielle Zevin's epic Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, a perfect read for your next book club. Heather Darwent's The Things We Do To Our Friends is not for the weak-stomached, well-written, but evil as hell.
She also dives into three debut Australian authors. All That's Left Unsaid by Tracey Lien has been longlisted for the Stella Prize. It is set in Cabramatta and looks at Vietnamese culture and immigration, Saman Shad's The Matchmaker is a fun romance that looks at Pakastani culture in Paramatta, and she talks about bereavement catering in Dianne Yarwood's The Wakes. All three books are rich in food, culture and conversation
Alissa has cooked from two new release cookbooks - RecipeTin eats and Yumi Stynes' The Food Fix. Adore. Consider meals for the School Holidays sorted.

The Paper Palace X The Palace Papers X Holly Ringland X Julia Ostro
Season 2 of read, eat, repeat is here - coming at you monthly with a round-up of the books we have read and the deliciousness it has inspired us to cook (or not).
Alissa's read Tina Brown's The Palace Papers (Sally listened to the audio book) and now they are both Royal tragics... Alissa's also read The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller.
Sal has read Holly Ringland's second novel The Seven Skins of Esther Wilding, as well as Maggie O'Farrell's The Marriage Portrait. Both highly recommended for different reasons.
The girls have also been cooking - Sal's mum gave her A Year of Simple Family Food by Julia Busuttil Nishimura and has cooked the Summer recipes within it - the Slow-roasted Tomatoes with Mint and Mozzarella is a BBQ fav.
It is so wonderful to be back in your ears. Follow us for more!

Yiayia Next Door X Brene Brown X Jane Austen X Tom Tilley X Around The Kitchen Table
Let's bugger off, buy a sunshiney yellow cottage and re-read Jane Austen! That's what octogenarian Ruth Wilson did! Sal and Alissa talk about why this book is so uniquely warm and cosy.
On the table this week ... is a chicken and rice one-pan wonder by the neighbour of two beautiful brothers who began the initiative YiaYia Next Door ... and a Milo cake and Salsa Verde from Around the Kitchen Table by Sophie Hansen and Annie Herron. (Not Janelle's camping biscuits - sorry, Sophie & Janelle! - Sal burnt them)!
We talk emotions with Brene Brown's Atlas of the Heart. We go deep on anxiety, envy and jealousy!
And we review Tom Tilley's insightful new book about religion in Australia.
