Among Books is a podcast about books… and a whole lot more. Recorded in-person at Hilltop Books in Northwest Philadelphia, the show features conversations with local community leaders, discussing some of the books they’ve read (or are reading), and the role reading has played in their approach to life, leadership, and community.
Each episode is accompanied by a reading list that compiles the books and authors mentioned during the conversation.
Among Books is hosted and produced by Kouvenda Media’s Stephanie Marudas, with podcast audio editing, mixing, and technical consulting by Brad Linder.
