Non-stuffy book chat and funny one-star reviews. We’re a book podcast for people who like reading but don't always feel qualified to talk about it. Maybe you went to state school or haven’t read any of the greats but still want to talk about books in a normal way. Every fortnight, Curtis Nice and Hajar J. Woodland read a novel and discuss it with some moderate cursing and chuckling at one-star reviews. We've taken a tiny break because the world got busy, but catch up on books you haven't read and episodes you haven't listened to and we will be back BIGGER AND BETTER by November!

If you only listen to one DBC episode, make it this one! You'll get serious wisdom and insight into life, society and thoughts on writing. Hashi Mohamed came to the UK age 9 as a Kenyan-born Somali refugee. He grappled with poor housing, schooling and prospects to find his way to a career as barrister - one of the UK's most elite professions. He talks to Hajar about his memoir People Like Us: What it Takes to Make it in Modern Britain and two of his favourite novels: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig and Disgrace by JM Coetzee.
