In every way.

Sounds, words, magic. More episodes, pretty please! The world’s gone mad and we need this more than ever.

From story selection to sound design this is the best literary podcast that exists. Please make more episodes!

I miss this creative, innovative podcast! Please bring back a new series!

One of the most intriguing and elegant podcasts I’ve ever enjoyed.

I love this podcast! Love, love, love it. Music, acting, writing - it’s a triple threat. You can even dance to it. Feel like it elevates my mind and alleviates cultural deprivation every time I listen.

So good! I feel like I’m hanging out with the coolest artists when I listen. A collage of poetry, spoken word stories and weirdness…

I love this podcast. It takes me on a journey and drops me back later. Great way to pass the time in rush hour traffic.

Beautiful sound stories selections. Diverse unexpected. The very best of the East Coast literary scene through the years sprinkled throughout with European flair. Most akin to a beautifully produced BBC podcast. A must hear even on repeat for the over educated and under paid aesthetes of this world.

A superb podcast of a superb literary magazine. Joy to listen!

nice little gem of a show

But I still miss Robert🙁

Review above

The sound production, the literary selections, and the choice and performance of readers is absolutely excellent. I had never thought of subscribing to the Paris Review before I listened to this podcast, but now I have to.

Excellently produced stories, a fantastic archive to pull content from. Got me to subscribe to The Paris Review magazine—on real paper and ink! Waiting patiently for that third season. Would love to see Borges featured 🤞

... From the first episode of season 1 this podcast completely captured me, the blending of fiction, poetry, writers’ interviews, and the occasional essay, mixed with some of the best sound design and music of any podcast makes every episode a special treat. I’ve listened to many of them more than once, and it quickly led me to subscribe. More. Please.

Super well done. Better than an audio book due to the presentation effort/sound affects/music. So enjoyable. Thanks.

One of the most satisfying and interesting podcast I have heard. Sadly I have listened to them all twice. When do we get new episodes?

The use of old interviews, stories, poetry & music weaved together is a joy to hear. It captures my mind like no other podcast. Well done.

The production value and sound design is really immersive. Being a fan of ephemera, I really enjoy hearing old stories and interviews from the Paris Review archives brought to the digital age.

Deep, funny, transporting. Extraordinary production value and readings.

What a precious gift. Each podcast is so beautifully crafted, so moving, so thought provoking. Thank you to everyone contributing to this excellent experience!

....and sexual assault as a garnish. Really confused how Ep. 16, which was basically a cheesy rap video in written form, made the editorial cut. Why is misogyny and sexual assault ok if it comes from a black man? Is this what we are to expect the rest of the season? If so, I’ll unsubscribe now.

Look forward to each new podcast. Thankful The Paris Review is back for a second season! Keep em coming!

Listen to Episode 15 immediately. It contains a beauty and depth sorely lacking in our world.

Really enjoyed season one. If you want a podcast that is polished and has a literary podcast format then this one is for you. In season two that the podcast just keeps getting better.

Such a moving thoughtful entertaining beautifully assembled series. Each episode a work of art in itself. Whoever does the audio mix (credited? I never catch it) is sooooooo good. Thank you.

This is an actual gift. Thank you.

love the content but the music and artful mixing are a distraction.

I loved season 1—but season 2 is already sounding even better, if that's possible. Starting off with Toni Morrison? That's how you come out swinging. Beautifully produced and immersive. Definitely worth a listen.

Love it!

Very glad season 2 of this podcast is on its way. Season 1 started a little weak. If you start with episode 1, you’ll be disappointed. Start with S1 episode 12 and work back. No story arch, so nothing lost by working back in this way. I can’t remember exactly when but at some point this podcast became amazing. The treasure trove of TPR archive is put to work with taste, timing and skill. If you listen to Granta or other like publication’s podcasts, this one is a million miles better - it just didn’t start that way. I assumed they’d given up on the podcast as season 2 has been a long time coming. If it is as good as the later part of season 1, we are all in for a treat.

Will this ghastly immersion return?

Of course the Paris Review puts together a great podcast. They have a nice variety of authors in each episode and make better use of music than many literary pods. 10/10 would recommend

PLEASE. AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. HOW MUCH LONGER? urgency urgency! it’s wonderful.

I like the style and the setup to this pod. Rare gifts of long forgotten audio interactions and interviews with some of my favorite authors. Hoping there will be a S2 as I’ve had this locked in my favorites for some time.

What happened to this podcast? I binge listened to it only to realize they haven’t produced anything in a year. I truly hope there is a future for this podcast! I love it so much.

Loved - and still loving season one. Anticipating the next season. Please hurry!

I have listened to Season 1 two times. I love the soundscapes, pacing, voices, and words. Waiting for Season 2!

You're done? I want you to return asap.

I have waited too long to remember this podcast, used to be my favorite.

Please!

A soundscape instead of a formal podcast. This is the perfect way to share the content with us, and I’ve never heard anything like it before. My only complaint is that it’s so new that I don’t have an infinite backlog of episodes to turn to, otherwise I’d listen every night before bed.

Production value is by far the best I’ve heard of the dozens of shows I listen to regularly.

These are deliciously packed with well produced stories, excellent audio quality and great editing. Love this podcast , thank you!

The voices, pacing, and subtle sound effects are magical. I have heard every episode so far, and I can't wait for Season 2.

3 dimensional Paris Review assembled from paper, ink, and sound. And not just any sound — voices of the famous and infamous, sound effects, and evocative music. The perfect Sunday auditory treat.

;)

where did it disappear to? can’t wait for the next episode!

The voices of ghosts poured into my ears, I search each week for more. Where are you Paris Review Podcast?
