I found this podcast because my daughter is in one of the classes taught by a host. It is great! I love help finding good books and the hosts have reviewed books that I was interested in and wanted to know whether I should bother. Really great podcast! Thank you!!
Wow, to say what you said about this book makes me sad. The character development and wisdom that only comes with age - was totally missed by you two.
There is nothing about this podcast I don’t love. What a unique, fresh take on talking about books. The only thing that would make this better would be a personal pan pizza delivered at the end of every episode.
Love the hosts. Entertaining with some great perspectives. From episode 2, that Parker guy seems really cool.
If you want to find good books to add to your reading list and have some very cool insights and laughs along the way, you will love this podcast.
Kacy and Tyler are very entertaining and I enjoy their takes on some great vs. less great literature. I will be sharing this podcast with all my bookclubs.
