Reviews
- Five stars!
The LARB Radio Hour is the most consistently intelligent yet down to earth podcast about books and ideas. And the best part is that I never know what I’m going to get when I tune in. How is it always interesting??

I love the LARB Radio Hour. Kate and Media are the best hosts: well-informed, well-read, and asking the good questions.

Cannot recommend this pod enough! Some of the most engaging and thoughtful conversation I've heard in eons, plus excellent book recommendations. This is my most favorite podcast out there!
Apple Podcasts5NeedsANicknamexxxUnited Statesa year ago - Favorite Show
LARB is the best podcast about current culture, literary specifically. The stars are the hosts who talk to their guests knowledgeably, without being overbearing, and have essentially decided what new books I will be purchasing. Even if it’s a book that doesn’t interest me specifically, the conversation always does. Love this show!
Apple Podcasts5BookandMoviesUnited Statesa year ago - The best literary podcast out there
I “subscribe” to several book related and culture podcasts— but this is the only one I listen to constantly, because the range of well-curated guests, the quality of conversations and snappy pacing that doesn’t make me feel like there’s so much filler and recycled, empty sound bites. Particularly loved the recent show with the great Anand Giradharadas! Kudos to the hosts for always keeping it fresh and interesting, even with guests who are currently making press rounds elsewhere.
