Episode the 1st: Literary Scandal
My friend Alanna Schubach and I have done the impossible: we got Jamir Nazir, winner of the Commonwealth Short Story Prize 2026, in the studio for a reading and an interview on our very first podcast. This presentation has been over a year in the making and has involved megamillions in angel investor funding, so we’re banking on you tuning in and hearing from Nazir himself. Please share and comment.We also discuss Pan by Michael Clune, Milkman by Anna Burns, Paul Theroux, VS Naipaul, the rise and fall of wokism in lit, Long Island, New Hampshire, that amazing Guardian Best Books List, hot bowls of culture, the libs, the leftists, the rightists, Vance v. Rubio, jasmine, Michael Derick Hudson and Best American Poetry, dirty creeks, artificial intelligence (AI), Salinger, who we really are, world travel, Asia, Trinidad, parenting, Ocean Vuong, how to save the children, the meaning behind names, publishing, literature, books and having the courage to say the thing.
