If you’re a fan of Chrissie Peria‘s The Kitchen When It Sizzles *waves hands enthusiastically*, you would be very familiar with this excerpt. This is the one with Adam Levine, coffee as cold as yesterday’s soup stock, a colorful weekend market, and the Talk. Nate is here too. Oh Nate. Read on for more context, then click the video featuring Rachel Coates as Olivia, and Gio Gahol as Nate. Enjoy the feelings! Olivia Nadal is an almost perfect girl with an almost perfect life.

Rain scenes are great. Rain scenes read by Gio and Rachel are even more awesome. Episode 8 of the #romanceclass podcast is another live recording from Filipino Readercon! YAY! In this excerpt from Miles Tan‘s Finding X, Rachel Coates is Carlisle, and Gio Gahol is Matteo, two awkward geeks stuck inside a dark car that was being pelted by rain. Shirts get wet, shirts get changed, blushes spread on cheeks. Lots of awesome.

You really had to be there. But if you weren’t, well too bad. Hehe. But the #romanceclass podcast gives you the next best thing. Episode 7 of the #romanceclass podcast features a scene from The Boyfriend Backtrack by Dawn Lanuza.

Listen to the recording below, and hopefully you’d…

I’m late, I know! But if you’re subscribed to the #romanceclass podcast, then you would have already listened to the episode featuring Cover (Story) Girl by Chris Mariano. If you haven’t subscribed OR listened to the podcast yet, then both are just a couple of clicks away. So, go click! In this episode, Rachel Coates plays Min Hee, while Gio Gahol plays Gio (hehe). And also a waiter. If that doesn’t get you curious, then check out the blurb below:

My book as a podcast episode. Man, that sounds cool. Songs of Our Breakup is episode 4 of the #romanceclass podcast. Now I’ve seen it performed live at FilReadercon last year, and while there is no rush like it, it’s a different feeling entirely hearing it (again and again and again) in its pure audio format. Here Gio Gahol plays Shinta and also reads the narration, while Rachel Coates plays Jill. The tilts in their voices, the pauses, the giggles and laughing smirks (hee) happen differently, and it’s just wonderful. Here’s a short description of the book to start you off. And don’t forget…
