We are BookRats, a podcast about the great works from some pretty average people. We believe these books have enormous value AND we believe anyone can read them. We love talking about these books and want to share the electric excitement of a good conversation.

You’ll be hard pressed to find a group of people who are this smart and hilarious, in equal measure. It feels almost like an online book club. Also a great resource for those needing something edible to accompany deeper concepts/readings!
If you’ve ever sat wishing you had people to just visit with about the questions on your mind or the books on your shelf, well, here they are! Alex, Caroline, and Steven have a great blend of friendship, eagerness, and scholarship, willingly — and perhaps, bravely — shared here with all.
