Everyone Loved It But Me

It’s hard to understand what the guest is saying when the host talks over him, repeatedly.

You’d be more convincing on this book if you had actually read and understood Twain’s book. You seem to have a child reader’s idea that Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a ‘rollicking’ light-hearted adventure tale. So not. In fact the book critiques that false Tom Sawyerish view of this unjust and dangerous world. Give a little attention to the problem ending of Huck Finn.

Re the episode about American Dirt. The speaking style of the host is so strange that I couldn’t continue. Every so often, to extend whatever thought she has, she said “and…” loudly. She mispronounced the word literature, as if it is spelled litta-chur.
