Welcome to the How To Love Lit Podcast page! For years we have had former students say to us, “I wish I had paid more attention in high school.” Many adults wish they had an academic “do-over” now that they’ve grown up and gained an appreciation for learning. Here’s your chance! We have taught *Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate classes in English and American Literature, Psychology, US History, US Government and Comparative Government for decades. In the age of podcasting, you might finally have a time-efficient way to deep dive into some of your favorite books. Whether you’re a student, teacher or life-long learner, join us every week to see which classic piece of literature we’re delving into and what we’re finding!

Check out what our listeners have to say about the How To Love Lit Podcast!

“In school I always disliked the “required” books we had to read for various classes. Even if they were genuinely good books, it was always a drag to read them. After listening to this episode about The Prince, I am strongly considering going back and reading ALL of the classics I begrudgingly read back in high school. The hosts are a dynamic duo- both have extensive backgrounds in teaching, specifically across Literature, Psychology, History and Government. They use this to give a TON of rich detail about The Prince that I would never known if I just tried to read it on my own. “

“This has really become one of my favorite podcasts; the hosts are pleasant to listen to and the content is really well presented. I just listened to the Kafka episode and I listened to the episodes on Sophocles (including Oedipus Rex) - twice…there’s no reason any competent US teenager can’t tackle these titles with the help of these two. I really love the healthy dynamic and great work ethic you model. Thank you!”

“I teach HS English and AP US Government. These podcasts enrich my lessons-I love the combination of Psychology, history and literary/rhetorical perspectives applied to the literature I teach. This podcast has rejuvenated my thinking and generated a spark in my enthusiasm. I am immensely grateful for this podcast”.

“These podcasts are the BEST. I learn profound truths every week that relate to history and my current life now. They are highly informative and practical for us today".

“This is a fantastic podcast for educators and students alike. The two hosts tackle the reading from differing perspectives which only adds to our (the listeners) enjoyment and understanding. The only drawback is having to wait for each episode!”

“Truly enjoying every word in these discussions and can’t wait to hear more. Keep ‘em coming!”
