sej48Scott ShapiroWhat a great interview with Scott Shapiro on hacking. I also loved your comment, “I resemble that remark.” Reminds me of my ex-father-in-law (if that’s a term). He said that often. Also, “It’s nice to have you over with.”

DanInTennesseeInsightful!Although I read on a wide range of subjects both fiction and nonfiction, obviously I can’t get to everything. Thankfully, we have Jen Taub and her awesome podcast to fill in gaps or to inspire us to read more. Really liked the Elie Honig episode. Knowledge is power and now more crucial than ever. -DanInTennessee

SenrabU2Excellent but Jen interrupts too muchI found Jen via Mary Trump. This podcast would get 5 stars if Jen didn’t interrupt her guests so much. Don’t get me wrong - I love the idea of this podcast because it is only about non-fiction material. However, Jen’s constant “stop right there” interruptions get annoying. I think she did this with Wajahat Ali two dozen times, and she’s doing it again in the literary agents episode. It’s probably due to her lawyer background - constantly asking questions and follow ups, asking people to go back to something.

AnitaridesImpressed with Variety of TopicsI have so far been impressed with the variety of topics explored. The authors, discussions, and commentary are thoughtful, insightful, and ultimately entertaining. I have been motivated to pick up books and investigate ideas and topics I might not have chosen.

heartattheskyDeep dive on great booksI love listening to deep dive conversations with authors, both the ones I’ve heard of, and especially the ones I have not!

MarieInSedonaUnpretentious Intellectual ConversationsEven though I have not gotten to all of the books, I just love how much I learn from Jen and her guests. Get into it. You will love it too. Sidebar: Hands down the best intro music on a podcast.

valiant voterExcellent economic educational informationThis book is now available in a young adult version. There are important plans to make this available to children deprived of libraries. So many voters will benefit from making wise choices after reading the book!

kbogg11Heather McGheeI am so glad you interviewed Heather McGhee. I read The Sum of Us when it first came out and it shifted the way I think about so many things. Any way to spread the word about her ideas and what is possible sounds good to me. Thank you for a great podcast - we need more people reading all of these books!

live freeze and dieGreat interviewI love learning about the wriring process. Also your style of interviewing - just two friends talking after the other guests have left - is more revealing and makes me feel like I have the previledge of being one of the remaining friends.
