Here's Mason's first column for the Pittsburgh Review of Books, 'Fluid Narratives and Culture Wars'. pghrev.com/fluid-narrat...

Plus, Mason overreacts to an upcoming novel being based on the Faust myth, and demands a moratorium on Faust retellings. Will the literary establishment take note?

Always a thoughtful and fun guest, Kyle gives us some insight into his process for this novel while establishing a mind-meld with Nathan over possible Halloween costumes.

We’re feeling spooky with horror author Kyle Winkler, back to discuss his latest novel, the creepy and horrifying Enter the Peerless, which starts with a private investigator trying to figure out what happened to a bunch of people who went into an abandoned trailer and never came out.

“A slippery narrative POV reminds us that storytelling — and hence life, the world, and everything in it — is a muddle of competing and conflicting interpretations.” A new piece by @stockstill.bsky.social of @thirdpersonlimited.bsky.social.

Mason really liked Silvia Park's 'Luminous'...

Nathan talks about the effect of Chat GPT on higher education, specifically writing classes.

Oh, you say he didn’t do it himself, and maybe it’s not stealing (legal opinions pending)? This may be true, or it may just be a topic we debate on this episode. Plus: We review the novel Luminous, by Silvia Park, a touching story of humans seeking connection in a world where robots walk among us.

There were a lot of highlights in our chat with Erin, but learning about Saddam Hussein's novels was probably our favorite moment.
