Behind the Mic: On Big Friendship by Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman, Read by the Authors

Every Monday through Friday, AudioFile’s editors recommend the best in audiobook listening. We keep our daily episodes short and sweet, with audiobook clips to give you a sample of our featured listens.

The hosts of the “Call Your Girlfriend” podcast are warm, open, and matter-of-fact narrators as they share personal details about the path their friendship has taken. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss an audiobook, Big Friendship, that centers around relationships that rarely get their due—friendships. Aminatou Sow and Ann Friedman sound comfortable and natural behind the mic as they trade off narrating their story and pull in the voices of friends and experts they interviewed during the course of writing their book. After you listen, call up a good friend for a chat.
