“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.
But! The ridiculous artificiality of only talking about dead authors means they wind up circling the same authors and topics time and again, and frequently self-censoring when they clearly want to speak about a contemporary author.
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.”

“Love the discussion about the Dead Authors, even when I don’t agree, because I love the way you guys make me think. BUT HATE the book advertisement. Is this a discussion about dead authors or an interview about an authors new book??? Your ruining beauty of your podcast.”

“This is so great! I love it. I do feel like Jake steps on Marlon’s dialogue a bit too much, interrupts him, finishes his sentences, etc. I get that Jake is excited, but really, step off and let the guy finish what he’s saying.”

“This is the reading podcast I’ve been waiting for! Marlon and Jake are fun to listen to and I love that they’re not talking about the cutting edge of literature but about the classics and books that have been around for a while. They’re reading in my wheelhouse and I eagerly await Season Two!”
