Reading has been the bedrock of my inner life as long as I can remember, especially from shows like reading rainbow. What An amazing extension of that to stumble on as an adult, to explore new stories again.
Love it

Great podcast. His soothing & nostalgia-inducing voice enhances each short story he reads to the listener. Then the way he quickly breaks it down at the end to discuss the deeper meaning or the reason he likes it is just comforting somehow. Absolutely love this podcast!

I know everyone is entitled to their opinion but after listening to the episode that aired 11/23/23 Where Levar discusses Donald Trump ruined this podcast for me. I’ll no longer be listening. If you like the way things have been run politically for the last 3+ years then I can no longer listen to anything you read/recommend. Keeping your political thoughts to yourself might be best for your show or maybe you just don’t want/like Donald Trump supports listening. ✌🏽
Bittersweet…

I just found out about this podcast from listening to your interview with Audie Cornish on her podcast, but wait…WHAT??!! This is the last episode of your last season…ugh. Well, the good news is you left a nice long catalog. And I’ll look forward to you next permutation. Love and Peace my brother. PS Loved the interview…so positive!
