The LitFlix Podcast
Are you that annoying friend who constantly compares the movie to the book? Can’t watch the movie until you’ve read the source material? Well, you have found your tribe. Welcome to The LitFlix Podcast! Each week we discuss books and the movies they grew up to be, while drinking and having an all around good time.
