Love these guys!
My mom showed me this podcast for school as we are reading through Mere Christianity, and it is my favorite part of my week after reading the chapter. I love this podcast and it is making me want to read more Books by Jack!

Virtual CS Lewis Book Club
The format of a chapter by chapter discussion of the books of CS Lewis is wonderful. I appreciate the insights of the three contributors. Each one adds his own perspective from a different background and temperament. I gave this rating 4 stars instead of 5 because I would like to have a way to “filter out” the distracting put-downs directed against Matt (who is delightful as a first-time reader of many of the books covered) from the other two hosts, especially from Andrew.
