The Garret Schuelke Podcast Episode 58: A Two and a Half Horse Town with Robert Dean

In the midst of enjoying another wonderful SXSW, journalist, raconteur, and enlightened dumbass Robert Dean returns to #powerfulGSP to talk about his new essay collection, EXISTENTIAL THIRST TRAP -including how he felt switching from writing fiction to nonfiction, how nostalgia effects his work, and why he will not write about New Orleans in his upcoming essay collections -, and Garret dives into some "fun questions" related to the essays, such as comparing Anthony Bourdain to current celebrity chefs, ranking Hank Williams Sr, Jr, and III, and Dean's wild times while working at the Chicago Board of Trade!

Recorded via phone in Grand Rapids, Michigan and Austin, Texas on Sunday, March 12th, 2023

Intro Song: “Summer Nights" by A Sunken Ship Irony
