Episode notes

Paul is joined in conversation by Josh Weiss, journalist for SYFY WIRE and published author, whose latest novel — “Sunset Empire” (set for release in March from Grand Central Publishing) — follows the continuing saga of LAPD detective Morris Baker, a Jewish Holocaust survivor who drowns his fractured memories of the unspeakable in schnapps and work. It is the follow-up to his debut novel, “Beat The Devils," an inventive, page-turning alternate history crime thriller set in a reality where the Red Scare never ended; praised by The New York Times Book Review for its "palpable emotional depth." Also, listen for a shoutout to Archie the Cavapoo!
