Books With Your Besties

Plug in, ignore real life for a bit and chat with your unhinged yet lovable besties Emily and Ashley.

In the words of Celisia Stanton “Dr. Reeder, a psychologist professor who teaches about the darkest corners of human behavior—like cults, serial killers, and the psychology of crime—delivers mind-blowing insights on every topic. Her best friend? She’s the lively, no-holds-barred storyteller who keeps things fun, real, and laugh-out-loud relatable.

Whether they’re breaking down a gripping thriller, exploring true crime cases, or tackling thought-provoking topics like justice and human nature, every episode blends depth, humor, and the kind of chemistry only 23 years of friendship can create.

If you love thrillers, true crime, and smart, entertaining discussions, Books with Your Bestie is your next favorite podcast”
