In this week’s podcast, we talk a bit about authors we “broke up” with. Writers like, say, Philip Roth, who evokes a pretty harsh reaction from Tom . . . Additionally we talk about authors we thought we had given up on, but to whom we keep returning and returning. <\/p>\n
And as usual, we digress a bit, talking smack about Milan Kundera and praising Robert Coover, both for The Universal Baseball Association, Inc., J. Henry Waugh, Prop.<\/em><\/a> and Noir<\/em>.<\/a><\/p>\n We also talk about summer vacations, because, well, we’re both going to be gone for the next couple weeks, so expect podcast #10 in mid-July. <\/p>\n This week’s featured song is Helena Beat<\/a> by Foster the People, a KCRW<\/span> favorite who produces insanely infectious songs. (“Pumped Up Kicks” and “Houdini” fall into this category as well.)<\/p>\n As always you can subscribe to the podcast in iTunes by clicking here<\/a>.
