This New Year's Day, we're bringing you a bonus episode from our friends at KUOW's arts and culture podcast Meet Me Here. Men are reading less. Reading less than women, not reading as much as before. But Author Daniel James Brown's book The Boys in the Boat broke through. This week we’re getting lit with Author Daniel James Brown and tackling the ~discourse~ to find out how authors like him are writing authentic men, complex men. Plus, we give you a ton of recommendations of books and authors that will make anybody want to read.
