Message: “Go Set a Watchman with Megan Tietz”

JR. welcomes fellow podcaster Megan Tietz of the Sorta Awesome Podcast to discuss the literary firestorm surrounding Harper Lee’s recently-published Harper Lee’s sequel/prequel to To Kill a Mockingbird. We dive into the complicated publication history, and spend a lot of time on the book’s controversial portrayal of beloved Atticus Finch. Along the way, we reflect on our own histories with the book, race and why this might be the perfect time for us to read the book.

Q Part 2

Q Part 2

Part 2 of our double-sized Episode 50! The StoryMen come to you live from the Q2014 Conference held in Nashville, TN, where they're joined by English professor and story expert Sarah-Jane Murray. In Part 2, we review the second day of Q, working through our favorite speakers, some problematic discussions of gender, some great discussions of gender, and what we thought of Day 2. Also it was super-late when we recorded, so we're a bit slap-happy. In this Episode: 00:00 - It's Late and our Brains are Full 03:00 - Q Brings the Tension 06:30 - Sarah-Jane's Favorites 09:30 - Clay's Favorites 12:00 - Matt's Favorites 14:00 - The most problematic talk 17:00 - Matt and JR. got in a fight 28:00 - Closing thoughts from Tripp Crosby

From Series: "StoryMen Season 3"

The StoryMen return under the NorvilleRogers banner! We've got better guests, bigger shows and - quite possibly - more potato chip challenges!
