Episode 34: The World of Patrick O'Brian with Ian Bradley and Mike Shank

If you’ve seen the incredible movie Master and Commander with Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany, you might know it was based on the rich world of Patrick O’Brian’s books. Ian Bradley and Mike Shank, fans of the book series for many years, were so enamored of the world, they started the popular podcast The Lubber’s Hole, all about Patrick O’Brian’s richly realized Aubrey-Maturin series.

In this episode we talk their opinions on the movie; life changing book suggestions; Irishmen who may not actually be Irishmen; spending the lockdown in your garden shed; the best book of the 20 to start with; and so much more.
