About This Podcast

4 Friends and A Book podcast centers discussions on books, life experiences, and a little bit of everything else in between. We have organic conversations which flow naturally from the book at hand, through the writer's journey, and of course, the impact it has on the culture. Our mission is to bring inspiration and reinforce the joys of literacy within our community.
