Intelligent, witty, insightful
This podcast is just what the doctor ordered during these strange times. Erin and Wes hold an eclectic variety of works of literature and film up to the light and explore their every facet for meaning. It’s neither too academic nor too breezy—two smart and relatable friends share their passion for great storytelling and contextualize them thoroughly against the world now. It’s hopeful and uplifting but never trite or sentimental. It helps if you’ve read the books and seen the films—so do it! Just a terrific podcast.
