Comedy writers Jason Hazeley and Joel Morris talk to people who make comedy about something funny that they love. Guests pick something that makes them laugh. A book, a film, a tv show, a comic, a radio show, anything. Maybe we find out something about how comedy works, or we just giggle until we’re finished. Both approaches are valid.

For 20 years, the Claremont Review of Books has been the gold standard for conservative criticism and political analysis. Now the CRB comes to the podcast world with a new interview show hosted by Dr. Spencer Klavan, the magazine’s assistant editor. As each new issue comes out, Spencer phones up authors whose essays have prompted deeper reflection and discussion. Over a drink and a copy of the latest CRB, he’ll chat with the leading minds on the Right about what’s going on in politics and literary culture. New interviews appear once a month, and–as a bonus–Spencer will sit down once per issue with his boss and friend Dr. Charles Kesler, editor of the CRB, to discuss the major themes that have arisen in the news cycle and their deeper implications for the state of the nation.

Hi, I’m Kayray and I love to read out loud. In this podcast, I’ll read to you from some of my very favorite kids’ books. I’d rather read than edit, so I don’t edit my recordings; you get to hear the mistakes and everything (there aren’t usually very many). Just pretend I’m right there reading you a bedtime story! 🙂
