We’re 12-year-old boys at heart and love jokes about butts and other body parts, so these books are right up our alley.

Reading Through Life is a weekly podcast by two best friends who would love to live inside a library. We believe that there is no better company than that towering pile of 73 unread novels you have sitting on your nightstand. And if we don’t get the quiet time to dive face first into a book each day, we get really stabby.
