@revslimiter @BritishGQ @josiahgogarty Moody and cool.

@dcsandbrook @BritishGQ @josiahgogarty But you both look miserable in the pic - or is that a moody kind of cool?!

Some excellent recommendations in this article about books podcasts by @BritishGQ. Thank you @josiahgogarty. gq-magazine.co.uk/article/the-be…

@albyjr3 @bookclubpodhq Yes, we’re recording The Code of the Woosters in a few weeks!

@bookclubpodhq @dcsandbrook Just finished The Secret History… amazing but grim. 1984/Wuthering heights/Normal People/Gatsby/ Never let me go/Hamnet- I guess happy people/stories aren’t interesting but … Any chance of a P G Wodehouse appearing on your list?!

@robdalby @bookclubpodhq Lovely. Thank you!

My walk to the pub takes me past George Orwell and H H Asquith’s last resting places. Never seen any ghostly hands! Loved the review of 1984. @bookclubpodhq @dcsandbrook

@FionaSturges This is a truly excellent column.

Friends/pod peeps. The FT canned my pod column last Nov after 10 years (a good innings for any column, tbh) but happily BBC Culture has decided now is a good time to start running pod reviews. So here they are & here I am. Pls share to get the word out! bbc.co.uk/culture/articl…

On @TheRestHistory, our epic EIGHTEENTH CENTURY JOHNSON series reaches its thrilling climax. THE SHADOW OF THE MADHOUSE As Johnson's mental health demons gather for the final showdown, he must face his most terrifying adversary yet - a WELSH WOMAN. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 linktr.ee/restishistory

Thank you so much @FionaSturges for the lovely review of The Book Club! bbc.co.uk/culture/articl…

Tabby and Dominic reveal the one author they’d most want to join them on The Book Club… 👀📚 What's your answer? 🧐

Today on @TheRestHistory, Boswell's rivals for DR JOHNSON's heart: - Hester Thrale, who provided a home away from home for Johnson - but did she provide something more? - Francis Barber: the son Johnson never had - Hodge: a cat linktr.ee/restishistory

Stop scrolling - because this is the best story you’ll hear today. #hilarymantel #shockingstory #likenothingyouveeverheardbefore

@christian_gale @bookclubpodhq @14 But is she not very explicitly talking about NOVELS there?

@dcsandbrook @bookclubpodhq Your response made my week, -thank you Dominic. (even if it is only to point out my error) To be specific @14:54, RTWPier between Aspidistra & Coming Up For Air.

Today's @bookclubpodhq episode is a cracker - an extended deep dive into George Orwell's NINETEEN EIGHTY-FOUR. We explore Orwell's life and death; Spain, Stalin and the Cold War; Winston Smith's Oceania; Big Brother; the rise of surveillance culture. 🎧 linktr.ee/thebookclub

@christian_gale @bookclubpodhq Thanks - but we did mention it.

@dcsandbrook @bookclubpodhq Mentioned most of his other works, but ‘Road to Wigan Pier’ didn't get a mention. Perhaps it’s significance lost on posh southerners. Otherwise a wonderful listen. 😎😎

@youngsm1th @bookclubpodhq You still alive?

@bookclubpodhq @dcsandbrook So good. Chris Floyd is a bloody genius

Get ahead while you can 👀📚

Big Brother is watching… but what did you think? 👁️📕 Is 1984 by George Orwell still hitting as hard today, or does it feel too bleak? Share your thoughts in the replies👇 The latest episode is out now, listen wherever you get your podcasts 🎧📺
