Author and publisher Brad King hosts The Downtown Writers Jam Podcast, an hour-long, one-on-one interview program with some of your favorite authors.

We don’t talk about themes or the writing process. Instead, we have the kind of discussions writers have when are readers aren’t around. We talk about the events that shaped us growing up, current affairs, and why we write about what we do.

My friend for nearly twenty years, author Woody Lewis and I sat down for the first time to talk about his book Three Lost Souls: Stories about race, class and loneliness and life. What came out of that: his membership in the Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), meeting and playing drums with Jimmy Hendricks, his family’s relationship to Sally Hemings, and the struggle with writing about being black in America.
