It’s a lot of fun!

I enjoy this podcast a lot! The hosts are a lot of fun and often outright hilarious! The anecdotes they share about their lives sometimes just leave me rolling on the floor! They are obviously wonderful, long-time friends and truly care for each other.
The movies and books they have seen and and read have opened my eyes to new genres and classics I knew nothing about before. I’ve had great fun exploring the movies and books they recommend (or not)!
My only wish is that Melanie would give Edward more time to speak. She’s funny, smart and energetic, but sometimes, Ed can’t get a word in!
For nerds like me, I’m in heaven every time I listen. It’s fun, engaging and a delightful time.

Like cocktails with friends

Thanks for letting us eavesdrop on your weekly fun! The best conversations are about the personal and their writing. It is a fun hour.

Hanging with friends

These two are so fun to listen to. Their conversations take the same twists and turns as mine do with friends. Interrupting each other to make a joke then inevitably “where were we...”? Just fun.
I like hearing about the movies they’re watching and how they tie it to books.
Spoiler alert... they spare no details when they rehash a movie. 😉
