I stumbled upon these guys when I was looking for a podcast about the show Dune: Prophecy. And I absolutely fell in love with these guys, their insights and humor. Need to hop over to Patreon and support them now because theyβre so worth it. Starting to listen to them as they read through Dune: Messiah. Abu and Leo, thank you so much for this podcast! ππΌππΌ
I really canβt picture my journey in reading Dune without Leo + Abu. The book clubs give such amazing insights into the lore and plot of the vast universe. The episodes are the perfect length and full of hilarious inside jokes. Thick, spicy boys 4 life.
These two hosts are the fantastic people that delve deep into the universe that Iβm so into!

A deep-dive, lore-forward show that guides both newcomers and veterans through the Dune universe, blending close reading with lively banter and a strong book-club cadence. Episodes routinely tackle political theology, factional power, and the lore behind Bene Gesserit, the Golden Path, and other key concepts, often supported by fan questions and chat-driven tangents. The hosts balance rigorous analysis with humor, making intricate world-building accessible while maintaining a clearly passionate, community-driven vibe. A standout trait is the thorough, interwoven exploration of canonical texts and encyclopedia material, paired with approachable explanations and sustained enthusiasm for the wider Dune cosmos.
