Hello! You need to do something about Drew’s mike - the volume is all over the place. Absolutely love this podcast! Kate and Drew are so likable and I really enjoy their commentary 💕💕
I know that I have found my “it girl” of podcasts when I find myself giggling and kicking my feet over anything and everything you two say. I have since added everything to my TBR and am going to find myself on the path of re-listening every episode. This podcast is what I imagine the development of temperature regulation felt like—all of the sudden you wonder how life could have existed without such an amazing thing. Short story long, I love it here and I will not be leaving.
I am loving this podcast and the thoughts and insights you both bring. A small criticism is that, at least on my phone, the volume is a bit too low. I sometimes struggle to hear what’s said, particularly with Drew. Even with headphones, his mic is a bit too low, but the overall volume seems low to me compared to other podcasts or when I switch to my music player.
Keep doing what y’all are doing! Can’t wait for season 2.
As an avid reader and bibliophile, this podcast is delightful, providing context and introducing new contextual facets of narratives near and dear to me, as well as ones instantly added to my TBR list!
I’m a tattoo artist, and I frequently listen to podcasts while I draw up designs for clients and prepare for my work week. This has very quickly become my favorite podcast, and it’s filling the niche in my listening habits that was left behind when IDEOTV stepped away. I’ve read many of the books being discussed, but I also have a few episodes I’m waiting to listen to until I read the book first (currently working my way through Wuthering Heights, and Beloved is up next). Side tangent, Drew roas... more
