Erudite and gossipy
This is the podcast I didn’t know I was waiting for!! First of all, I could listen to Marlon James talk about anything. He is insanely knowledgeable and totally original. Secondly, I love books by dead people and I don’t get to have conversations about them enough. I thought it would bother me more when they criticize books I love, but they have such well formed arguments instead they make me think about them differently. And its all done with so much passionate belief in the power of literature and gossipy familiarity it warms the heart.

This is THE podcast for lovers of literature. Marlon and Jake hit the sweet spot between academic and accessible. They offer fascinating insights into not only books but the people who wrote them. Their banter is witty and funny, and you just wish you could fix yourself a cocktail and join them.
