Customer Reviews
Mansplaining central
I really like this pod but holy cow does Jeff know that he just plows over Rebecca 99% of the time? I don’t know how Rebecca puts up with it. This man just talks over her constantly. Like just blatantly and aggressively. It’s genuinely wild.
Do the hosts read these reviews?
Jeff. Please stop interrupting Rebecca. She has important things to say. Slow down and let her speak! I love the content of this show but it’s way too annoying to listen to Jeff for 90% of the podcast. Could we get a different host or rotate Jeff out every other week or something? I’d love to hear more of Rebecca’s thoughts.
Loveee
I absolutely love this show! I look forward to every new release. It’s not only enjoyable, but as a Children’s Librarian it’s such an easily digestible way to keep up with what’s happening in the adult world of books & publishing without ever feeling like I’m doing more work. Great hosts & awesome info!
