LITerally Ep. 8 - Combo with Bug Huckers Podcast: Authors, On Fly Fishing the Northern Rockies

The LITerally fishing 'cast! Host, Kase Johnstun found two essayists -- Chadd VanZanten and Russ Beck -- to torture in the LITerally hot seat, and, happily, they gave it right back. We answered some serious questions about truth, ethics in nonfiction, and the contract between writer and reader, and then we did fun stuff like talked about fishing with the awesome Bug Huckers.

If you fish, write, or like to laugh, this is 'cast for you!
