Bad Audiobooks is a parody podcast hosted by Nick Mazmanian and Kent Heidelman, who help you endure all forms of literature by reading books in ridiculous voices and roasting them for your enjoyment. The show rotates between classic, contemporary, and terrible stories. Never quite knowing the real text until they're reading/ruining it, Nick and Kent bring down the high brow world of novels for you through their twisted lens of comedy.
