Podcast 2 "Minor Characters"

On Joyce Johnson, Jack Kerouac, and the romance of being number 2.

Richard Toon and I thought this topic would be fun to talk about in that it spans 60 years of thought on love, relationships, and how women understand their mobility in the world. Who have we been told we are? What in past love do we still cling to and feel formed us? How do social understandings change?

We hope you enjoy our conversation and feel prompted to think further about these topics.

The podcast is for PAID subscribers to the stack. There is a button below to start a paid subscription. There is a discount offer in place of 25% off, so an annual subscription is now $37.50 and a monthly subscription is $3.75. We’re planning more benefits for PAID subscribers, including an upcoming Zoom conversation in July to be announced. And more “production values” (as it were) on our upcoming podcasts—including theme music composed by Richard! (How? where?)

The stack thanks you for the tremendous support you’ve given it so far. And so do I.
