Ep 3.4 Walking the Distance Together

After a brief hiatus, Cece and Anthony are back! This month, the hosts are joined by memoirist and editor, Lilly Dancyger. The trio discuss Lilly’s new memoir, Negative Space, coming out with SFWP in 2021 (2:15); working with a Big-Five press versus an independent press (7:00); how editing has informed Lilly’s writing (10:15); and writing and publishing during uncertain times (13:00). In the Pop! section, Anthony and Cece discuss Kanye West and politics (17:00), Jada Pinkett and Will Smith (27:30), and Hamilton (32:00). Lilly then rejoins the hosts for the Bang! section to talk about new discoveries during quarantine (43:00).
