and June Thomas makes everyone of them better.
June Thomas is a wonderful host: smart, easygoing, and curious. Fascinating books and great interviews. I wish it were twice as long and twice as frequent. Brava!
I find that June does such a through job of preparation for the podcast, that she is able to ask questions that are both insightful and interesting. Even though, unreviewed, many of the books would have been of marginal interest to me, her interviews illuminate the compelling aspects of the books in a manner that I can best categorize as both delightul and informative.
Loved June on the culture gabfest. She is a great host. I have no interest in some of these books but June still puts on a great show.
By far one of my favorite podcasts. As a runner, I'm always looking for podcasts to play along with my runs. I've taken June on many runs lately and the miles fly by listening to her intelligent interviews on subjects I had not thought I was even interested in. So glad to have this show to add to my playlist.
