Introduction🎤

Literature has always been a big part of my life. I have been exposed to many different types of books since I was young, and this passion is strong to this day. Combining that with my eagerness to write, studying literature was a must.

I knew that consuming loads of books would amount to nothing if the information taken from them was not stored, noted down, or analysed. This is why I started my Polish literature podcast under the name Herbatka z Herdzikiem.

My role in the project🎙️

I am the sole founder of this podcast. For the past 22 episodes, I have talked about books that many people find gripping. I did it mostly for myself at first, but I hope that my podcast is a good entry point for any fan of literature.

Each episode consists of a summary of the book and a highlight of the main observable motives. The shows are aimed at people who have already read the book or don’t mind getting spoilers, as I talk about everything in the narrative.

Having a huge library of books, and having been schooled in literature analysis, I am of the opinion that this is the best way of retaining knowledge and sharing it with the world. This exercise helps me be a better writer and a better storyteller, as I can always access past episodes and remind myself how a good story is constructed.

Conclusion👨‍🎤

Being a podcast host is something that I enjoy. It is also a statement that I study narratives and read books to consistently study the craft of storytelling and writing. For the non-Polish speakers, there is also one episode of the English version of the podcast that can be found here.
