About this listen

TBR Files Pod is a cozy little corner of the internet hosted by two childhood friends turned long-distance book besties who reconnected through their shared love of stories. Each episode is basically a catch-up call across the miles of Minnesota - talking current reads, shared buddy reads, overflowing TBR’s, and all the bookish tangents that make reading feel magical again.

Whether you’re looking for your next favorite read or just want to hang out with friends who love books as much as you do, the TBR Files Pod has a chapter for you.
