About Us

Hi from Nic and Ally! In our conversations over the last year or so we both noticed that the other one is missing out on a lot of things they've just never tried--like how Ally has never seen any Indiana Jones movies. Each month we'll be pitching something for the other one to try, then talking about the experience on this podcast.

We both work at the David A. Howe Public Library, Nic as the Director, and Ally as the Teen Librarian. But we actually first met when Ally was a kid and took an acting class from Nic.
