Customer Reviews
A -MAZ-ING!
Discussion about books, words, authors, attitudes towards different books/words/authors, and the structure of language.
Love the discussion and the knowledge and wisdom they share.
BTW: I do read self help books too, Frank. 😁
Intelligent, Funny, Loving
I love this podcast and have been a listener since they did an episode with the guys from Overdue. I loved and miss Gwen, but Rhonda is an absolute delight! And Frank is, of course, a superstar! Thank you for this podcast, it’s one of the very best. I’m feeling for you with all that is happening in America at the moment, stay strong and keep well xx
More than just books.
Gwen and Franc are obviously knowledgeable without being know it all. They always relish the opportunity to listen and learn from each other and their guests. When the topics are difficult they discuss them with heart and sensitivity.
My “to read” pile has grown exponentially since binging every episode and I often recommend the books Gwen reads to her son.
This pod cast made me get a library card, increased my desire to read and made me want to revisit New York City and the libraries within.
I highly recommend the podcast.
All the way from Hobart, Tasmania - thank you!
