Swing Your Sword by Mike Leach

09/13/22 • 85 min

Rec’d by pod fan Gus Stephens who told us that the author “pees on a dog in the first few pages and frames it as a good thing.” Amazing! A crazy successful football coach whose politics are questionable and lessons are even more confusing!
Mean Book Club is four ladies (UCB, BuzzFeed, College Humor, Impractical Jokers) who read, discuss and whine about NYT bestselling books that have questionable literary merit. It's fun. It's cathartic. It's perfect for your commute. New podcast every other Tuesday!

12 Rules for Life by Jordan Peterson

This one’s for our Canadian fans! Michelle Boucher says this alt-right psychologist “promoted an all-meat diet, said he was awake for a month straight” and is basically a sexist monster! Although TECHNICALLY not a NYT bestseller because it was only published in Canada, this book looked too juicy to not discuss. Turns out it’s horrible in more ways than one!

The Lies that Bind by Emily Giffin with Warren Smith

Rec’d by pod fan Elise who told us that this book is “truly terrible” and “an insult to 9/11.” Turns out it’s also an insult to literature!
