I love this podcast, the integrity of the competition, and everything else about it.
Now please… post the July 2025 longlist announcement 😭
Ed and Amanda are so much fun to listen to—makes my commute go by much quicker. Their daredevil episodes are my favorites, though I do love listening to them disagree about the recs they give each other in the “normal” episodes.
Hands down my favourite writing podcast of all time. You won’t find a better combination of entertainment, education and well-timed innuendos anywhere else. My only issue with it is that I had to stop listening to the podcast on my commute to work because I’d get strange looks from people on the train when I’d start snort-wheezing like a chain-smoking pig - the out-takes at the end kill me every time.
