Rachel and Neely are insightful and entertaining. Love hearing their takes and even details about their life. Feels like listening to a friend catch me up and review what we are reading/watching. ❤️
I love listening to the smut show podcast, each time I see a new episode has been added i race to listen, sometimes i save it as my little 5star for the week 🎉 I love listening to the things they watch and read. Oh I also love Rachel books! 📚
These people need to learn how to interview somebody. My favorite author is on and I wanted to hear her speak, but she’s barely allowed.
Recently found this podcast and can’t get enough! It’s my new favorite thing to listen to while on my long walks, doing laundry, meal prepping, just literally anytime I can have this podcast on, it’s going on! Neely and Rachel are so good at making it feel like I’m listening to friends talking about their lives and the books they love and their interview style is so relaxed and fun! They’ve also introduced me to so many good books! God bless Carter Beckett!
Rachel and Neely are two of my very favorite people to listen to!! This show really feels like you’re having a wine night with your girls and BONUS the main topic is BOOKS!! Love their guests, casual interview style, and the giggles! Cannot recommend enough 😄
