Living in a small community on the rocky shore of the BC coast, it is a delight to see a new episode of Penguin arrive. A valuable connection to interesting interviews. Thank you.

The Very Best of Podcasts from the UK

I am not sure how I found this podcast but it is certainly helping my brain in this uncertain time of Covid. This podcast is pure joy! I especially like the presenter Nihal Arthanayake with his genuine love of the subjects, warm voice and humour.

I am Canadian and we do not get the rich array of books that the UK has. Audible here in Canada is full of Oprah picks and US authors. There is not enough diversity in our book market.
