From The Podcast

LitWit

In this podcast series, Dustin Hixenbaugh & Carly Lott introduce listeners to new and favorite books. Dusty is an English professor, and Carly is a high school counselor, and they have very different perspectives on the books they discuss. Still, their shared love of reading (and Margaret Atwood) brings them together. This is a perfect podcast to enjoy when you're relaxing with an adult beverage or racking up the miles on the treadmill. Book recommendations abound.
