Bookpile
by Andrew Katay and Natasha Moore
Are you someone with piles of books in your life, read and unread? Us too. Join Andrew Katay and Natasha Moore as they talk about stuff they’ve read - some must-reads, a few don’t-bothers - and argue the questions they raise. Andrew Katay is a pastor and CEO, Natasha Moore is a writer. Andrew’s agreed to read more fiction for this podcast, and Tash more non-fiction: we tackle one of each per episode, on a theme. We’re likely to talk about Christian things in any given episode, but Bookpile is for everyone who likes to read, or would like to read more.
