Letter writing is a dying art. With the advent social networking, text messaging, and ignoring your problems and loved ones, nobody writes letters anymore. I’m here to push against the trend, to be that letter writing equivalent of that hipster guy who still rides a pennyfarthing. I’m just one stupid person who writes letters to anyone about anything, and I’d be honored to write one to you. My name is Alyssa and this is Letter Talk.

Go Ahead Letter Talk!!

I listen to a ton of podcasts so subscribing to a new one is always a tough choice! When I saw all these episodes were less than 10 minutes long I was like ‘thank you!!!!!’ and subscribed instantly. The letter reading is hilarious and the timely sound bites fit oh so snug. This podcast is best paired with a wiry sativa to imagine the joy and the reactions of the person when they receive their letter....talk.

So soothing

Alyssa is not only a fantastic writer, but she also has one of the most soothing voices out there. She is hillarious and calming at the same time! I love this show!

Entering the Rabbit Hole

This Podcast is brilliant, like watching a Tim and Eric episode complete sober or a “Stef0n” skit on Weekend Update where he describes a night spot as having everything: midgets, dog-faced clowns, used napkins, DAN CORTEZ. In other words, if your idea of comedy involves a laugh track, move along, but if you enjoy surreal humour, you’ve found a winner in Alyssa
