Customer Reviews
It’s like I’m there
Agatha is a great interviewer - she can make someone who works in a genre I’m not necessarily into the most interesting person there is. That’s a true skill not everyone has. Plus, listening to her and her guests talk is almost like being there with them. Highly recommend.
Love it
I just discovered this podcast last month! I’ve been binging past episodes and eagerly waiting for new ones. I enjoy the wide range of guests, with authors from all types of publishing backgrounds— independent small presses, and big five. Agatha does not discriminate, and I’m here for it. Her background as a historian, librarian and writer made the conversations a cut above the rest. Bravo!
Favorite Podcast
I absolutely love this podcast! Agatha Andrews is a delightful host, incisive, thoughtful and passionate.
