Podcast The Pub 37: Really Good Lemonade

death-of-the-author

The Death of the Author

In this episode, we talk about the way an author’s life and actions affect our choice to read and our ability to enjoy that author’s work. Molly imagines a time before the internet, when Hemingway could wear dresses more privately. Sarah espouses a utilitarian moral relativism while pining for the Hogwarts videogame. Trey shamefully admits that he loves Chik-fil-A lemonade and chicken. And Dean imagines Jeffrey Dahmer writing a really good children’s book.

Cast

Hosted by Dean Karpowicz, with Molly Krasel, Trey Bourn, and Sarah Willis.
