The friendly and authentic style of this podcast is what makes me want to listen to it. I love the honesty and of course the fantastic advice. Thanks guys - appreciate all your time and effort!
I just discovered this podcast and have raced through several of their interviews with some of my favourite writers. Very binge-worthy!
Easily the best podcast out there about writing. Their backlog of episodes is amazing. The hosts are super likable and pull some great conversation out of their guests. I listen to a number of writing podcasts, but this one clears all of them. This show is wildly underrated. I almost never see it recommended, but I am recommending it to you right now!
I discovered this podcast by accident, and I keep listening because every guest is fascinating. I especially enjoyed the interview with a somewhat reluctant David Mamet. Amazingly talented and productive considering says he is uneducated.
An avid reader and writer across genres, I never miss an episode of this essential pod. The hosts are not only well-read and well-prepared, but they’re also immensely likable. Thanks to them, I continue to expand my skills and my TBR; moreover, as an American, I appreciate their insights into UK fiction. Bravo!
