In 2013 The Guardian described Litbits as one of the best three literary podcasts on the internet, alongside Bookworm and The New Yorker Fiction Podcast.[9] Ola Wihlke of Bear Books said that 'Lit Bits is probably the funniest podcast on literature right now, even if it raises serious literary issues.'[10]
