Podcasts about book bites

Ever found yourself debating whether listening to an audiobook "counts" as reading? You're not alone. Our latest Book Bites episode dives deep into the fascinating divide between audiobooks and physical reading, revealing how our brains process information in surprisingly different ways.Susie and Kylee sit on opposite ends of the reading spectrum – one connects more deeply through audiobooks, while the other needs the physical page to truly absorb a story. This fundamental difference leads to a fascinating conversation about how we each uniquely process information.The discussion covers everything from narrators who make or break audiobooks (with strong opinions on certain Irish accents!), to which genres work better in audio format versus text. Non-fiction and books with extensive character lists often shine as audiobooks, while complex fantasy with intricate worldbuilding might benefit from the ability to flip back pages for reference. Speed listeners will appreciate the debate on whether 1.5x or 2x is the sweet spot for audiobook consumption.What emerges most clearly? There's no wrong way to enjoy literature. So tell us – are you Team Audiobook, Team Physical Book, or happily enjoying both worlds? Your brain might just be wired for one more than the other!Support the showEditing done by Connor Luther @clfilms.coMusic by @thundercatlouisMerch Here

What makes us turn the page or toss the book? That's the question driving our latest Book Bites mini-episode, where we're pulling back the curtain on the literary devices that either captivate or frustrate us as readers.Kylee and Susie serve up a deliciously honest conversation about romance novel tropes, revealing their reading preferences with unfiltered enthusiasm. For every "second chance romance" that has us swooning (though we'd never give those second chances in real life), there's a frustrating miscommunication plot that makes us want to scream at fictional characters to just talk to each other already! We dissect why we're suckers for the "he falls first" dynamic, where male protagonists are secretly obsessed while heroines remain oblivious to their affections.From arranged marriages to workplace romances, royal love stories to found families, we explore what makes these familiar patterns so satisfying when executed well. But we don't hold back on our literary pet peeves either – bully-to-lovers relationships that cross ethical boundaries, love magically "curing" infertility, uncomfortable age gaps, and books that promise romance but deliver nothing spicier than a handshake all make our hit list. And don't get us started on cliffhanger endings without proper epilogues!Whether you're nodding along in agreement or preparing your counterarguments, this episode celebrates how reading preferences reveal what we value in storytelling. Share your own trope loves and hates with us – we promise we have thick skin (mostly)! After all, the conversation around what makes literature resonate is as fascinating as the books themselves.Support the showEditing done by Connor Luther @clfilms.coMusic by @thundercatlouisMerch Here

All week long on The Next Big Idea Daily, Michael will be chatting with social psychologist David Myers about the wonder of human thought and action, and how you can use insights from the latest research in David's field to boost your mood, improve your decision-making, and more. Today, David shares his first big idea, and it's a counterintuitive one. It turns out that “much as when we observe others and infer their sentiments, so hearing ourselves talk clues us in to our own attitudes.” Our newsletter comes out every Friday.

A few years ago, Adam Gopnik, a longtime writer for The New Yorker and three-time winner of the National Magazine Award, started thinking about all the things he wasn't good at. He couldn't dance the foxtrot or bake a brioche. Well into his 50s, he still had no idea how to drive a car. To make matters worse, when he looked around, he saw people who could do these things — often with great skill. How, he wondered, did they do it? How do any of us get good at the things we're good at? And how do some of us become next-level masters? To answer those questions, Adam set out to master the skills he lacked, and he has written up the results in a profound little book called "The Real Work: On the Mystery of Mastery." All this week, he'll be sitting down with Michael to talk about how he did it and what he learned. First up: drawing. Our newsletter comes out every Friday. It features commentary from Michael, links to relevant Book Bites, previews of upcoming seasons, and ways to engage with us. Sign up now!
