I think this is the longest book I’ve ever read and listeners of @itysrpod.bsky.social have heard me mention the book numerous times, mostly in trepidation of reading the bloody thing. Stupidly proud of myself for getting the head down and reading it. Maybe next year I’ll do Haughey.

The final episode of season 2 drops tomorrow! We'll be discussing Ross MacDonald's "The Chill" with crime fiction nerd Peter McGann! 💙📚

Would you like to hear @ronanhession.bsky.social's thoughts on 'The Notebook Trilogy' by Ágota Kristóf. My favourite description of the series so far is Rónán describing this book as like 'a strong blue cheese'. You'll have to tune in tomorrow to find out more!!

Ellen Willis once described John Lennon as sexy. A thorny issue which we discuss with Dean and which you should listen to.

I Think You Should Read Podcast @itysrpod.bsky.social · 22/05/2025

We also ask if it’s ever ok to describe John Lennon as sexy, how listening to music has evolved as tech has evolved and Rachel asks a long and rambling question that Dean very kindly turns into something vaguely coherent.
