Customer Reviews
Great!
I really enjoyed listening to the episode on Sex and Love’s Labors Lost. I really enjoyed the conversation and felt that the women and I would be good friends in real life. I will absolutely listen to more in the future!
Shakespeare down to earth
Oftentimes Shakespeare is placed on a throne that feels unapproachable and distant to the large majority of people, including myself at times. But Mary and her guests bring his works back to the people through their honest and light-hearted chat about his works.
