In this captivating episode, we immerse ourselves in the atmospheric world of 1930s Pittsburgh with the dynamic literary duo, M.M. Downing and S.J. Waugh. Downing and Waugh discuss their middle-grade trilogy "The Adventures of the Flash Gang," where the lead character, a street orphan, and his diverse gang outwit pro-Nazi plots. Dubbed by host Alex Greenwood as "The Baker Street Irregulars meets Encyclopedia Brown," the book's setting provides a gritty, smoggy backdrop that effectively becomes a character in itself and resonates with the current political climate, drawing parallels with modern American politics. It's a book that will capture your middle grader's attention and may just delight the middle-grader in you. Listen in! “Delightfully Dickensian in spirit. Period events are woven seamlessly into this rollicking tale of friendship and fortitude. I challenge any reader not to fall in love with the histrionics and devil-may-care verve of Pearl Alice Clavell and her grease-smeared partner in crime, Lewis Carter.” —J.R.

In this captivating episode, Alex sits down with the legendary Richard Sparks, a mastermind in comedy writing and entertainment, whose collaborations span icons like Placido Domingo, Rowan Atkinson, and John Cleese of Monty Python fame. Sparks delves into his latest foray into fantasy fiction with "New Rock, New Role," a novel drawing from his passion for online gaming and depicting a retired teacher's adventurous quest for self-discovery in the digital gaming world. Reflecting on a storied career that catalyzed Rowan Atkinson’s rise with the unforgettable schoolmaster sketch, Sparks echoes Chekhov in celebrating the unique synergy between writer and actor.
