My Cousin Jane is a podcast about the life and works of Jane Austen, produced by her cousin, Lee Falin. Well…her eighth cousin, six times removed.

Rather than explore the “literary themes and ethos of Jane Austen”, we explore what you might think of as the behind-the-scenes featurettes, or special bonus features of Austen’s books.
