Story Men - July 27, 2015
Go Set a Watchman with Megan Tietz
From Series: "Extras"
StoryMen Extras are shorter, more focused episodes. Think of them like appetizers to our main courses!
The StoryMen take some time to reflect on what they’re grateful for. The conversation turns to Thanksgiving traditions – real and made up. Then, since we’re talking about founding myths, we investigate recent admissions by the Mormon church that Joseph Smith was in fact a polygamist. Finally, we engage the conversation about the “Stand and Greet” time many churches employ, but many people hate. Plus, we introduce our Pop Culture Picks of the Week!

CloseJR. 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.
