01.31.2019 - By Laura Herrick and Laura Cooley: Literature lovers and podcasters
If you don’t know this by now, let us remind you: Keep It Lit is the champagne of podcasts. On the *first* episode of 2019, Herrick and Cooley dive deep into “Backpack” by Tony Earley and let’s just say there’s more in there than a sack lunch and some Fritos, baby! It’s a story that tackles mental health, human connections, class structures, and cultural appropriation. The text is rich and our conversation is crude. So crack open a Miller High Life and pour one out for your alter ego.
