Hey book girlies and gamer guys!

Welcome to our website! We’re excited to get to share this journey with you. Whether you’re new to us and wanting to see what we’re about, or you’re an old friend wanting to reminisce on past episodes, we’ve got you covered!

Why start a podcast about games and books?

A Pod of Sass and Sarcasm started in October, 2024 when two nerds, Sara and Ian, sat down in front of a microphone to share some incredible stories.

We started this pod because we love reading stories and sharing them with each other. We love analyzing texts, learning new things, and of course playing games. If we were going to start a podcast about anything, why wouldn’t we talk about what we love?

We are so excited to take you on these incredible journeys through books and games and all things nerdy! We’re constantly learning and growing, and we can’t wait to see what comes next!

Who Are We?
