ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
What do you get when you combine two book nerds, a distaste for agenda-driven drivel, and a desire to return to better storytelling? Apparently, you get a publishing house and its flagship podcast!
On Narrative Decay, co-hosts Seth Cordle and Rebekah Edwards discuss the ideologically corrupted state of publishing, the decline of literacy in America, and how they're trying to change their little corner of the book world.
