  • Could not Understand the Host

    James Walton writes well, but speaks with such a rapid delivery and lack of clear enunciation that it was extremely difficult to understand him on this podcast. I had to give up the struggle.

  • It grew on me and now I’m loving it

    I often avoid Booker winning novels, my prejudice was that the short-listed novels are pretentious and dry. This podcast proves me wrong. I’ve really enjoyed the Oscar episodes and the recent Booker vs. Bookies. I’m listening to every episode now.

  • One of the only podcasts I will listen to the entire time

    This is such a fun podcast to listen to. I love how they have different tastes in books yet discuss everything so thoroughly.

  • Love the lit crit

    This is my favourite podcast. I started reading all the BPWs in chronological order last winter (I’m up to 1982) and James/Jo have been the best literary companions. I love the way they riff off each other and how they weave in their own analysis and interpretation without intellectual snobbery or being patronising. Love the “thesis/antithesis/synthesis” structure identified by James. I see it everywhere now! Thank you
