We are thrilled to be back, after a long hiatus, with a brand new episode in which your co-hosts Jude and John discuss some of the best books we read while we were on break. A little bit of Irish writing, poetry, a few science fiction selections, ancient civilizations, some social satire... there's quite a variety of titles here as regular followers of the show have come to expect. We know that the audio is a bit unpolished; we are still learning how to use our new podcast app and we do have some technical limitations. But we figured it's more important to get new content out there than to obsess over the details. Thanks so much to you all for your patience and for listening to the show. Please don't forget to throw us a positive star review on Spotify and other channels such as Apple or Google, it's easy and will really help us to build things back up. Hope you will enjoy the conversation!
