Nora's Kraken with Mike Leffingwell

Dive into the delightfully chaotic world of Too Stupid to Live: Romance Reviews $5 and Under, hosted by the brilliantly unhinged Becky Feldman. This is where literary critique meets comedic chaos, all focused on the surprisingly wild universe of budget romance novels. Each episode, Becky brings her passionate, hilarious, and deeply invested perspective as a reader, dissecting tropes, celebrating steam, and reveling in the sometimes absurd narratives found for less than the price of a latte. The result is a uniquely smart and funny podcast that treats these stories with both genuine affection and riotous commentary. Beyond the reviews, the podcast regularly features conversations with both beloved and emerging romance authors, offering a behind-the-scenes look at their craft and latest works. It’s a celebration of a genre often dismissed, explored with a sharp wit and an undeniable love for the material. For anyone who enjoys laughter, literary deep-dives, and stories where passion doesn’t break the bank, this comedy podcast delivers an consistently entertaining and oddly insightful listen.
