Refreshing
It’s nice to have a lit podcast that doesn’t take itself too seriously. I laugh my way through the episodes and have ended up reading some of the books they discuss.
Comfort podcast, Stuff You Should Know Vibes
Great podcast for commuting/road trips. These guys are a hilarious combo and kind of have a similar style to Josh and Chuck from Stuff You Should Know—but all books instead of everything. I especially like the competitive aspect, it’s fun to root for Ian or Joe depending on who’s book you’ve maybe read.
Always a jolly time
These guys have great rapport with each other. They welcome listeners into an hour of camaraderie that is more than satisfying.
