I'm Having Fun!

I've been enjoying this podcast. As someone who has never read the books being discussed, the podcast does a great job of summarizing them. My favorite aspect is the personal insight/banter between hosts (for example the part that touched on High School smoking attitudes in 2007). In conclusion, will continue listening.
