Passion and care
Ian and Mike are passionate, caring fans of the series. They “do their level best” to deliver a through read through of each book (sometimes by the chapter). The two of them will discuss the plot(s), characters, settings, language, and whatever makes each book special. These guys have an honest and earnest love for the works of Patrick O’Brian. They demonstrate this by explaining the depth that O’Brian goes with his descriptions of anatomy, sailing, food and drink, language, relationships, and humor. Within a few moments of playing an episode, the listener will know that their journey reading the books along with Ian and Mike is in safe hands.

More reviews of The Lubber's Hole
Feels like listening to two of my friends having a blast talking about a fantastic novel series. I wish there were more high quality bibliophile podcasts out there like this one.

When playing catch up where I want to listen to a podcast from the start I listen to the first and then it jumps to the latest episode rather the episode 2. Let me sort them by creation date and play on order.

I was promoted to write this review by the Miley Cyrus joke in episode 44. I didn’t expect an Aubrey-Maturin podcast to have me in stitches but here we are. Great guests, great back and forth between Mike and Ian. -from a millennial fan.
