  • It was disappointing . Cannot tap zero stars.

    I am Colombian and wanted to listen something sophisticated, as Gabo won the Nobel prize of literature, not a gift. Anyways, I found people just making fun of everything. Laughing at our culture, names. Not research how to pronounce names and cities and well. It sounded like a parody o comedy show instead. Not refined content. I am going to keep looking… good luck with the unprofessionalism.

  • Move on

    Tried to listen to the episode on Comac McCarthys The Crossing. I’ll say this. These two guys love themselves and think they are funny. They know nothing about literature. Additionally if you have to warn me about the word Indian I’ve already dismissed your take. This is pure drivel.

  • they said nothing about the book

    This is the worst podcast I’ve ever heard. This is just two want to be comedians, who are not funny in the word, peace episode they try to joke around about everything except the book. No discussion of it whatsoever. Just their little rips on Cliff Notes and how smart they are. Easily the worst podcast I’ve ever heard.

  • I love Overdue! I find them to be not only entertaining but very thoughtful. If you're new to the podcast, I'd skip the first few episodes if you want to start from the beginning. Otherwise, I'd pick an episode about a book you're interested in to start with.

  • Love the format

    Always worth listening to, I have listened to episodes about books I never intend to read because I love Andrew and Craigs banter. I don’t always agree with their opinions but if we all liked the same stuff, life would be pretty boring.
