Love this podcast!
I have been a fan of this podcast and of Mike and Chris from day 1! Being a follower of the thriller genre, an avid reader, and someone who gets emotionally invested in the characters, I love that these guys not only read the books ( it’s obvious when someone is discussing a book they haven’t read - everything is gen...
Read MoreIf you love reading thriller novels, then this is the podcast for you!
Join Chris & Mike for their weekly podcast as they discuss both old and new book releases of the greatest thriller novels of all time. Having always been a fan of spy thriller novels, I am always discovering new thriller novels to add to my reading list from this podcast.
Can’t stop listening and reading
Just discovered the Mitch Rapp books in January and I’m currently in the middle of Enemy at the Gates (the sadness that it’s almost over is coming on strong). This podcast is a MUST LISTEN to anyone who loves these books. It’s been a pleasure to binge listen to the episodes as I binge read the books.
For any fan of Mitch Rapp
I love this discussion of the Mitch Rapp series. It’s like being in a book club with some really cool people. I’ll be listening to all of these episodes.

They have authors and experts on frequently. Just when I thought I’d heard the best one, the next...

Love your podcasts! Just two guys nerding out to awesome books. Will upgrade my review to 5 stars if you review some of Joel C. Rosenberg’s books. He’s coming out with a new Marcus Ryker novel in May 2023, would love to hear you guys chat about any of his books. Thanks!
Love hearing about my favorite thrillers
I am a big fan of the No Limits series. I have been following all their streams. The Thriller Podcast is for all the smaller (or yet to be numerous) thrillers. Hearing the breakdowns of the books always has one or two things I didn’t catch or different view. It’s a great way to review the books and will go back to...

This podcast has taken my reading of thrillers to a whole new level. From having a few favorite authors that I wait for their books to come out to having a shelf of books to be read and a calendar of new releases to plan for. To summarize what I like about this podcast: I like the review of the books, the introducti...

I LOVE Mitch Rapp and I love this podcast! Found the podcast about 2 weeks ago, and I’m on episode 49! A couple of Rapp nerds, and I love it. Great job of breaking down the books and I love their ratings and just thinking through the books. I wish I would have found the podcast when you first started it. Keep up t...

Mitch Rapp was the second mi-pol thriller series I was exposed to (J. B. Collins by Joel C Rosenberg being the first), and I was immediately hooked from the start of American Assassin (my first book). I just finished Lethal Agent and have 19 and 20 ready to go, and I plan on restarting the series after I finish Enemy a...
