Episode description
The New Era begins with new co-host Matt Fresta. Fresta is the editor of Rango Tango Magazine and is now the "second mic."
For this first episode, we chat about William S Burroughs, 'The Place of Dead Roads', a psychedelic, gunslinging Western with science fiction elements and Burroughs' trademark deconstructionist schtick.
On the Patreon-exclusive show, Back Matter, we chat about Gus Van Sant's Drugstore Cowboy, which pairs well with Burroughs (he makes a cameo as a junkie priest). Feel free to subscribe at https://www.patreon.com/GettingLit
