“I very much like this podcast, so much that it's vaulted to my #1 listen each week. The hosts, Stig and Thea, engage in enjoyable banter, largely around pronunciation quirks and certain differences over linguistic style. But mostly they get right to the interviews, which are with consistently interesting writers for the TLS. In this way, you get a discussion of several articles to come in the weekly TLS publication -- a sort of preview, but also a wider discussion. You also get to hear the writers discuss their topics in conversation with the hosts, which I think adds a layer of insight, and sometimes they expand on points they haven't covered in their written pieces. Altogether, I think it doesn't replace the written TLS but makes you want to read more of it -- unfortunately, it [the paper itself] is somewhat harder to get in the US. I also have enjoyed the group discussions they occasionally feature of 'most overrated' and 'most neglected' books, films, etc. Finally, Thea was exactly right: Captain Fantastic was a terrible movie!”Read full review »
