“It is embarrassing.
Just talk about *all* the books.
These two are a great pair with natural chemistry and a deep love and knowledge of literature.
They speak of books with the erudition, humor, and love that you hope you can convey to your own friends.

So embarrassing.
Just talk about literature in general like the professionals you are.
This would be an easy 5-Star Must Listen podcast for lovers of literature, if it wasn’t for their self-censoring.”

“Hey guys, I adore this show. As a writer myself it’s refreshing to hear two writing smart gentlemen speak candidly and without reservation about loves and hates with historic writers. My only note is I find myself wanting more. I could easily listen to a 2 or 3 hour long episode about specific...”Read full review »
