"Fun With Pop Culture"
There are few things we agree on more around the Spunkybean offices than how awesome Mad Men is, and we’re counting down to the new season with giddy anticipation (The two hour season premiere is on AMC, Sunday March 25 at 9pm!)

Book Review of The Wedding Beat: A Novel
by Devan Sipher
If The Wedding Beat’s protagonist was a woman, this book would be considered classic Chick Lit. But it’s not, nor was it written by a woman. The book’s author is Devan Sipher, a forty something man and he doesn’t write Chick Lit. He writes [...]
