Early, ad-free, and bonus content.
$4.99/mo or $49.99/yr after trial
Subtext is a book club podcast for readers interested in what the greatest works of the human imagination say about life’s big questions. Each episode, philosopher Wes Alwan and poet Erin O’Luanaigh conduct a close reading of a text or film and co-write an audio essay about it in real time. It’s literary analysis, but in the best sense: we try not overly stuffy and pedantic, but rather focus on unearthing what’s most compelling about great books and movies, and how it is they can touch our lives in such a significant way.

Such an outstanding and insightful podcast. If I could hear conversations this thoughtful and eloquent at the local pub, I would make my way there as often as possible, instead of staying home and drinking alone.
Best Lit Pod

This is the most thoughtful, engaging, and funny literature podcast I know of. If they’re discussing a work I love and know thoroughly, I unfailingly walk away with new considerations, full of wonder; if they’re discussing a work I do not know, I likewise leave the episode buzzing with ideas. Either way, Subtext is always a thought-provoking and fun listen. Cannot recommend enough.
Excellent podcast!
