Is January a Scam? Plus Michael Douglas’ Worst Dad Era & Brittany Murphy Supremacy

January is fake, Michael Douglas is way too calm about child kidnapping, and Brittany Murphy deserved the world.

This week on Put Your Books Down, Natalie Sanderson Jones and Angela Bingham spiral joyfully through seasonal despair, unearned cinematic confidence, long leather coats, emotionally unavailable therapists, dry lips, and the absolutely BONKERS ending of Don't Say a Word now that it's resurfaced on Netflix.

We question why everyone in early-2000s thrillers reacts to trauma like it's a mild inconvenience, pitch the sequel Hollywood was too cowardly to make, mourn Brittany Murphy properly, and somehow end up planning late-in-life stand-up careers fueled by Gwyneth Paltrow permission and sheer audacity.

It's movies, mental health, January rage, red carpet opinions, and one long love letter to being deeply unserious about everything.

New episodes every week. Namaste, but make it feral
