Sara & Cariad’s Weirdos Book Club
Widely available, episodes weekly from Thursday
If you’d like to join a book club but don’t like wine, nibbles or other people, Sara Pascoe and Cariad Lloyd’s podcast is what you need. The hosts have so much to say about the books that you can’t help but want to read them immediately. But there are writers and comedians to help, too. First, Nish Kumar, who brings I’m a Fan by Sheena Patel, opening a discussion about terrible men, Instagram life and race issues. Hannah Verdier
