My readers and listeners know that this project, The Frontier Psychiatrists, is daily. Sometimes, I don't get the thing done till the end of the day. Today is one of those days. I was running on empty when it came to narrative this morning, so I decided to try to make a podcast. One of the tricky things about these more experimental days is that I don't know if the story is going to work. It's like walking a tightrope. I'll choose something— anything— to write about. And today I decide to make it even more difficult for myself, because I didn't feel like typing anything, and so I made a podcast instead. Today's was going to be about Machine Gun Kelly and being old. That's all I knew.
The podcast you're about to listen to explains what happened, and the lessons I took away from the journey of trying to figure out who the heck Machine Gun Kelly is. The podcast features some of my favorite people, including
, Courtny Hopen, RN, and my mom, Vita Muir. Surprisingly, it ends up featuring Drew Barrymore, and I'll let you listen to figure out how that happened.
Thanks for joining me on this publication's experimental journey. I really hope you listen to the episode. It took all day to land, and I think it's good enough.
Yes, the podcast was created—top to bottom— today.
