Glenn Webber ,

A must-listen for anyone who enjoys writing.

This is one of the original podcasts about writing. Anyone interested in the craft owes it to themselves to explore the entire archives for the invaluable information they hold.

This podcast keeps me writing.

I love the podcast, it's in my top three. I've been listening for about a year and have managed to work through most of the back catalogue. Listening to you guys keeps me writing when I hit those low self esteem days. Thank you for making a sporadic hobby become a full time hobby.

My fav., podcast

I love listening to these guys talk about writing. It's enlightening, inspirational, and funny. I highly recommend this show to any aspiring writer/ fan of the craft. If any writing podcast deserves to have their hosts discover "overnight success" it's without a doubt the Dead Robot's Society. Keep up the good work.
