Customer Reviews
Fun fresh ways to look at Shakespeare
This podcast is such a joy to listen to. You know that class that was so much fun that you didn’t realize you were learning so much? That’s what Stephanie has created with P2M.
Stephanie has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Shakespeare and she brings on fantastic guests for lively discussions about Shakespeare.
What’s a Shakespeare?!
Okay, okay, yes I know who Shakespeare is, but I am not even close to knowledgeable on his works. This podcast is amazing because it blends knowledge with comedy with awesome interview skills that’s makes it so even someone like me, knowing next to nothing, can learn and discover something about Shakespeare! Stephanie is an amazing podcast host, I would recommend this show to everyone!
To listen or not to listen? Answer: Listen
I am a literature nerd, so I adore ridiculous and intense debates about the bard. That being said, I don’t think you need to have a degree in Shakespeare to enjoy this show. Every episode, host Stephanie and a guest have a fun Shakespeare debate. Like “Who would be the best cross-play couple?” The episodes are bite-sized and therefore easy to binge.
