Wherein we have a rousing chat with literary troublemaker and highly pseudonymous Andrew Shaffer (aka @EvilWylie, @EmperorFranzen, Fanny Merkin, and Edgar Allen Pole). The author of the hit Fifty Shames of Earl Grey and the new Literary Rogues: A Scandalous History of Wayward Authors stopped by the studio to talk about his writing exploits, fun Twitter exchanges, his greeting card line featured on The Colbert Report, and why he feels satire and humor matter. And we kinda punk Patton Oswald at the end. Theme music by Latché Swing.
