About

Built specifically for the intellectual 'Night People'—the weary wage slaves, cynics, and late-night autodidacts—this solo narrative podcast transforms dry literature into hilarious raw human truth. Hosted by Elton, a profane, caffeinated former comedy writer turned podcaster, and a team of misfits, we surgically dissect a new book weekly, exposing billionaire fluff, celebrating tragic geniuses, and walk with monsters. Subscribe to Elton Reads A Book A Week. Don’t let them die out. It's time to enter this endless library, and see where it takes you...
