After more than a decade of nerding out over great reads, we're turning the page with a brand-new chapter. The podcast you know and love is back, just with a fresh new name and a comfy new vibe.🎙️Welcome to Book Lounge by Libby!
We’ve officially retired the Professional Book Nerds name, but our passion for books, authors, and incredible conversations hasn’t gone anywhere. In fact, it’s only growing. Book Lounge by Libby is your new go-to for cozy, smart, and joyful book talk with author interviews, behind-the-scenes stories, Libby reading recs, and lots more to come.
Hosted by me, Joe Skelley, each episode invites you into a candid conversation about books, writing, publishing and the trends shaping the literary world. PLUS, every episode features book recommendations from some of your favorite online content creators.
The first episode is already live and you can start listening below! Check out episode 1: Behind the Mic: Narrators, Authors, and Producers on the Magic of Audiobooks now wherever you get your podcasts! If you prefer, you can also watch the full episode on YouTube.
✨ And here’s the extra exciting part: we’re unveiling a fun new look for Libby Life and a new page just for the Book Lounge podcast! You’ll soon be able to explore more content, catch up on past episodes, and dig deeper into the reading life we all love.
So grab your favorite drink, fluff up those pillows, and settle in! There’s always a seat waiting for you in the Book Lounge.
