Sara Pascoe and Cariad Lloyd are returning for series two of their hit podcast, Sara & Cariad’s Weirdos Book Club which launches on Thursday 5th September.
Listeners are invited to join the Weirdos Book Club - a space for the lonely outsider to feel accepted and appreciated. Assisted by Sara and Cariad’s comedian and writer friends, each week they discuss a book that is special, stimulating and y’know - weird!
Guests in the fist series included the likes of Naomi Klein, David Nicholls, Nish Kumar, Ian Rankin, Marian Keyes, Yomi Adegoke, and more.
Series two will see Sara and Cariad joined by another host of brilliant guests to discuss some weird and wonderful books. Kicking of the new series is the comedian and actress Roisin Conaty on Katherine Heiny’s Standard Deviation.
Sara & Cariad’s Weirdos Book Club is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and all major podcast platforms - listeners can subscribe now.
Sara Pascoe said: “Series two we are going even weirder and wonderful-er. We’ve got clever, funny, talented guests and our bookshelves are positively straining under our To-Read piles, bliss.”
Cariad Lloyd said: “The thing about being a reading addict is that you can never get enough- so here we go with series two. I hope we will continue to connect readers to books and to be a great listen for everyone whether they are reading along or not!”
The podcast is produced by Plosive – the team behind award-winning podcasts including Off Menu with Ed Gamble and James Acaster, Lucy & Sam’s Perfect Brains, Northern News and The Rob Auton Daily Podcast.
