Great host

Loved June on the culture gabfest. She is a great host. I have no interest in some of these books but June still puts on a great show.

Always delightful

I find that June does such a through job of preparation for the podcast, that she is able to ask questions that are both insightful and interesting. Even though, unreviewed, many of the books would have been of marginal interest to me, her interviews illuminate the compelling aspects of the books in a manner that I can best categorize as both delightul and informative.
