  • Joe Biden's Promises to Keep

    Want to read hundreds of pages about politicians? If your answer is "no" or "maybe," then consider hiring Honest Politics to read a book for you. This podcast discusses Joe Biden's first autobiography: Promises to Keep, as a rough example of how this could be done for you. When you commission the book reading, you will choose what I focus on, so it will be targeted for you and rich in cited details. This podcast was an unscripted reflection on the book, rather than a commissioned product. Email [email protected] with any message to get started.
