My fresh convo on with Ron Currie re his latest novel, the family crime saga, <a href= "https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/761720/the-savage-noble-death-of-babs-dionne-by-ron-currie/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Savage, Noble Death of Babs Dionne</a>. We discussed: (1) creating existentialist heroes, (2) eats-nails-for-breakfast French Canadian female mobsters, and (3) how leading an authentic life as the highest virtue in a world of fading meaning. All episodes of The Thoughtful Bro aired live originally on <a href="https://www.amightyblaze.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">A Mighty Blaze</a>.

Episode 63: Colum McCann

The Thoughtful Bro, hosted by Mark Cecil, is a podcast for writers, readers, and anyone interested in a tale well told. Each episode features an author who's recently published a book, and we unpack how and why they wrote it. It's "Inside the Actors Studio"...but for storytellers.
