About Poured Over

Poured Over is a show for readers who pore over details, obsess over sentences and ideas and stories and characters; readers who ask a lot of questions, just like Poured Over's host, Miwa Messer, a career bookseller who's always reading.

New episodes land Tuesdays and Thursdays (with occasional bonus episodes on Saturdays).
