What is Broads and Books?
Broads and Books is here to give you the best time you’ll have all week.
Every Wednesday, we start with a weekly theme. Like Cults. Road trips. Forgiveness. Wishes. We choose two fiction books on that theme, and we tell you a little bit about them and why they’re awesome. Then, we choose two other genre books, like memoirs, true crime books, graphic novels, or short stories. And finally, because we are obsessed with so much more than books, we pick two pop culture picks on that week’s theme. TV, Movies, Podcasts, anything.
Along the way, we’re asking each other questions about the theme, telling stories, and embarking on some strange and hilarious tangents. And updating you on the Podcats that live and wreak havoc in the studio.
All this, in under an hour. Every. Damn. Week.
Plus! We talk to some of your favorite authors in special bonus episodes. We’ve talked to authors like Julia Phillips, Angie Kim, Mona Awad, Amy Gentry, Andrea Lawlor, Carter Sickels, and Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah. And so many more.
We’re a book podcast. We’re a funny podcast. We’re gonna make you think. And laugh. And find your next great obsession.
So take a listen. You can start anywhere, with any episode. You’ll find our free episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
And head to broadsandbooks.com to find every episode, all our recommendations, tons of bonus material, and much more on us broads. And the Podcats. Always Podcats. If you sign up at our website, you’ll get a free list of ALL our picks so far. Because we love you.
Listen today! And happy reading.
Broads and Books is the funny and feminist book podcast you need in your life!
Each episode, Amy and Erin choose a unique theme. Then we choose two fiction books, two other genre books (short story collections, memoir, non-fiction, true crime, poetry, etc.), and two pop culture picks based on that theme. We surprise each other with our picks, talk about why we like them, and give you unexpected recommendations for every reading taste.
Along the way, we share embarrassing stories, pitch amazing-slash-crackpot business ideas, implicate ourselves in future crimes, check in on our Podcats, and so much more.
Broads and Books is fresh, funny, thought-provoking, and basically the best time you'll have all week.
