In the pre-internet era, finding this author's books was like a treasure hunt through used bookstores. For one superfan, the hunt led to something far more valuable.

3 days until the episode drops!

@daveawl.bsky.social will be on the upcoming episode of YMIS, which drops January 19th, to talk about HIS most interesting story... which does indeed involve Russell Hoban. Stay tuned! #RussellHoban #Hoban100 #truestories #turtlediary #RiddleyWalker

Dave Awl @daveawl.bsky.social · Jan 6

Some bookish fun for 2025: an international group of readers/scholars are planning a slate of events in February to celebrate what would have been the 100th birthday of Russell Hoban (author of novels like Riddley Walker & Turtle Diary, plus a slew of classic children’s books). Stay tuned! #Hoban100

A row of four images side by side. On the left is a black and white author photo of Russell Hoban, taken by his sister Tana. Next is the cover of the novel Riddley Walker, with an illustration of a puppet show booth in a barren landscape. Next is the book cover for the movie tie-in edition of the novel Turtle Diary, with a still image from the film showing Glenda Jackson and Ben Kingsley crouching next to a large sea turtle in shallow water. On the left is the cover of the children's book Bread and Jam for Frances, with a drawing of the character Frances the badger happily eating a piece of bread with jam on it, while holding a jar of jam in her other hand.

Editing this holiday episode reminded me of all the times the amazing toy I wanted from the commercial turned out to be a disappointing plastic piece of junk.

Sometimes expectations & reality are VERY different things.

New episode drops Sunday!

“14ers” are mountains that exceed 14,000'. There are 58 of them in Colorado - over half of those in the entire US.

Our most recent episode features a hiking trip that goes very wrong on one of these peaks. #podcast #truestory #hiking #colorado #mountains #chicagobasin #14er

Neat to get a mention of my podcast on a podcast about podcasts. It's the Matryoshka (Russian) doll of promotional tactics. 😜 Link takes you to the exact spot.

Do you prefer raisins or chocolate chips in your gorp? Cohost Jake has some strong feelings about this topic.

Want to know why cohost Jake couldn’t stop giggling during the recording of “Mutiny on the Basin?” Listen to the end for his misinterpretation of the term “hotdogging.” 🤣🤣🤣🌭🧻 #soccer #hotdog #podcast #truestories #easteregg
