Customer Reviews
Palpable Enthusiasm!
Ryan is the best host - her enthusiasm and preparation are obvious and delightful! Booksellers really can make books into successes. But we need to do our part by shopping at our local independent stores and trusting them to steer us to the gems. The Laydown with Ryan is a superb way to stay on course!
Great podcast!
Huge fan of Gibson's and the Laydown Podcast! Thanks for having Karen and I on the podcast -- it was our honor!
Fun Book Podcast
I love this podcast. Jo and Ryan are true book fans and I love the books that they recommend. They bring some unique books to the podcasts that I can't find on a typical book site, TV etc. And they very fun to listen to as well and laid-back.
