It’s nice to have a lit podcast that doesn’t take itself too seriously. I laugh my way through the episodes and have ended up reading some of the books they discuss.
Great podcast for commuting/road trips. These guys are a hilarious combo and kind of have a similar style to Josh and Chuck from Stuff You Should Know—but all books instead of everything. I especially like the competitive aspect, it’s fun to root for Ian or Joe depending on who’s book you’ve maybe read.
These guys have great rapport with each other. They welcome listeners into an hour of camaraderie that is more than satisfying.
Thanks to my old literary theory professor and his strange buddies for bringing me my weekly source of serotonin. thanks also for increasing my tbr by approximately 20 books
I am loving this podcast! I’m a huge bookworm (or lit-head) and this is my new podcast home. You guys are very funny and literate, and that’s a great combo. I’ve sent in a few suggestions and will continue to do so.
