  • One half a great show

    A book discussion show with the insightful and entertaining Mahlon is dragged down by his pedantic off kilter editor vho bores as he breathes .

  • No discussion of the secret history!

    I don’t know why you guys didn’t talk about the secret history, the campus novel of the last 30 years. There was plenty of drinking and plenty of smoking and plenty of fooling around and unlike most other campus novels, there was a murder. The book is a classic. You guys drop the ball on this one.

  • Amazing duo

    Funny, witty duo. There is such chemistry between these two. The conversations are highly fascinating and make you want to read or re-read classics. Marlon and Jake come from different worlds, which makes this all the most interesting. The most recent episode on cities is excellent, for example.
