Live from the Book Shop: John Updike’s Ghost
by Hannah Harlow and Sam Pfeifle
July 11, 2025 3:12 am
Sibling bookstore owners Hannah Harlow and Sam Pfeifle call each other up at random hours and talk about what they’re reading and what they’re psyched is coming out next, plus discuss some book news of the day. It doesn’t get much more bookish than when a publishing executive and MFA in Creative Writing buys a bookstore with an English teacher and journalist. Opening theme song sung by Ruby Pfeifle, Julie Sanborn, and Madison Doughty.
