The Animal Riot Podcast is a "literary" podcast that invites artists, entrepreneurs, and diverse thinkers to express their belletristic opinions on everything from Borges to bureaucracy. Though literary at its locus, the Animal Riot Podcast isn’t afraid to take on the world at large, including prison reform, Deafness, and the commercial merits of, yes, the Insane Clown Posse. So join us as we rise to self-imposed drinking challenges and say things as we see them – subscribe, review & forever prosper.

Welcome back Animals. It's been a while, but we've got the podcast back up and running, beginning with episode 51, featuring the old pack, Devin Kelly, Seth Katz, Jared Marcel Pollen, and George Sawaya. In today's episode, we reflect upon what drives us to write, not just during the ongoing pandemic, when it can seem as if everything that matters has been rearranged from all recognition but why we pick up a pen in the first place. We reflect on everything from Michael Jordan's relentless drive and artistry as reflected in the recent documentary, The Last Dance, to how we used to write before the ambition and vanity of wanting to publish our work began to influence our innocent passion for putting words on paper. We might even muse on how Top Gun was subsidized by the government because they want us to feel a certain way about our country.
