Extremely Online by Taylor Lorenz
Taylor's book is wonderfully fun and insightful! I could've spend days asking her questions about the internet and our weird cultures, so hopefully you'll enjoy us nerding out about internet history and lore!

Customer Reviews
Needed in the podcast space...
The topics, recommendations, guest, etc are all so important in the podcast space. Love it, keep it up!
Nonfiction BookPod. Finally.
Here so I don’t get fined
Not really about the books!
The episodes consistently feel less about the books and more about the host’s personal interests, with books as framing devices. The Tarantino episode made this really clear. I am not sure why, if he and his guest were struggling to talk about the book because of a lack of base knowledge on the subject, they wouldn’t watch one of the movies that Tarantino discusses in the episode. The podcast is interesting if you are interested in the host’s adjacent thoughts on whatever the book is about, but if you’re interested in the books, how they are written, what is successful or not, just read the books.
