Bad on Paper, hosted by Becca Freeman and Olivia Muenter, is a weekly podcast about books, banter, and interviews with inspiring women. Join Becca and Olivia for weekly episodes and a monthly book club. I love both their interviews and solo (duo) episodes. They bring a lively discussion around books and other pop culture things.

Professional Book Girl

The bookstagrammer @KayReadWhat delves into her latest book obsessions. I love her bookstagram, and her podcast is no different! Her reviews are so thorough and I trust her opinions around books, specifically her historical fiction book recommendations.
