003: My Heart Is A Rose Manhattan by Nikki Reimer

It's the first episode! Our hosts, Dina Del Bucchia and Daniel Zomparelli, chat with author Nikki Reimer about her new book Downverse (Talonbooks, 2014). Talk also turns to Calgary, hashtags and the new as-yet unrecorded podcast of the future, Maximum Butts, and everyone provides helpful tips for post literary-event small talk. Features the maybe one day popular segment: "What's George Bowering Doing?"
