Three Percent #30: Half-Baked Literary Freak

In this week’s podcast, Chad and Tom welcome Ed Nawotka, editor of Publishing Perspectives, to unpack the Best Translated Book Award fiction longlist that was announced this week. (Also, Harry Potter, the Oscars, and other fun miscellany all make random appearances.)

(And, in honor of the big BTBA longlist announcement, the intro music is “Something Big” by the avant-garde, sometimes-recluse, musician/producer Jim O’Rourke, who—bless his soul—also loves Burt Bacharach, as evidenced by this painfully catchy tune.)
