This week we’re joined by a person The New Yorker has called “The Adele of Audiobooks!” You guessed it, we’re exploring the ins and outs of audiobooks with none other than novelist, screenwriter, actor, and iconic audiobook narrator, Julia Whelan. She gives us a behind the scenes peek at the the recording process, what makes a standout audiobook production, how she cares for her voice, and how she writes, edits, and records her own books!
Her books Thank You for Listening, My Oxford Year, and Casanova LLC are out now. She also recommends the audiobook for Bluff by Michael Kardos (which she narrates).
