Thanks, Neil!
I stumbled upon 3Books. I’m not a faithful podcast listener, sampling here and there, never really committing to any, but I was intrigued. Neil’s values and desires for the podcast resonated with me: no ads, the 2-channel recording, no book guilt or shame, and so on…. I scanned the 3Books chapters and decided to listen to half a dozen interviews with names I recognized. Then, Neil’s references to other chapters led me to names I didn’t know. I had no idea who Seth Godin was, but one reviewer remarked that although the Godin episode was long, it was worth every minute. “Oh, come on,” I thought. I gave Seth Godin a try – the reviewer was right and I shared that episode with many people. Seth took me to Vish, Vish took me to another…and by then I knew I had to start at the beginning and go one episode at a time. I’m hooked and well on my way to being a member of all three 3Books “clubs.” I’ve shared excerpts of the show with anyone who will listen. I have read and am reading a number of books from the list of 1000, expanding my reading life. I’ve learned about some really fascinating people on the show – I’m no longer limited to only those names I recognize. I appreciate and learn from every chapter. And the “end of the podcast club” is a bonus for any word and etymology geek out there. At first, I figured Neil was just another podcast ego, but he’s genuine. He doesn’t hesitate to say when he doesn’t understand something. He admits his mistakes (loved the Hard Times mix-up). He is sincerely interested in his guests, and his enthusiasm shows. He mispronounces words and sometimes corrects himself, sometimes doesn’t. In a nutshell – he’s real, relatable. AWESOME!

More reviews of 3 Books With Neil Pasricha
Wow, so happy that I stumbled onto this podcast! As Seth Godin often says, “Books are a screaming bargain. You might have something that might change your life.” I have similar thoughts about listening to quality podcasts like this. It might just be a specific interview or the mention of a...Read full review »

You needn’t be particularly well read to enjoy this. The books are no doubt front-and-center, but serve chiefly as primers for some really terrific conversation. Neil has a very crisp interviewing style that keeps the discussion focused and on pace. Definitely worth a listen.

Good guests, but Mr. Pasricha has the annoying habit of repeatedly interrupting them just as they are beginning to answer. It's as if he wants to show off how well he can anticipate where they're going by jumping in to get there first. It's extremely frustrating.Read full review »
