In context
JeselnikWhat was the first one you did? The first one I did was Jim Thompson's The Getaway. Right. And people loved it. People loved it because it has a crazy ending. Yeah. They liked hearing me talk about it. And when I was talking about it, I was like, oh, I enjoy this. I'm good at this.
JeselnikAnd then I interviewed an author.
JeselnikI got my friend of mine, Isaac Fitzgerald, at Skylight Books to promote his book. And it was so easy and fun and funny that I thought, oh, I can do this every week. And then I committed. So not only am I going to be doing the book club, getting guys to read a book a month, we'll be talking about new releases, getting in guests.
JeselnikWe've already got some. We managed to find and get Greg Rosenthal.
