Some amazing stories on this episode. Deborah is a fabulous writer and journalist, and her graphic novel “Poseurs” combines both of these skills for a great read, with beautiful art from Rick Mays.
Oriana’s memoir “Girlvert” is like “Boogie Nights” times one million – it’s seriously intense and a hell of a story. Put on “Sister Christian” really loud while you read it.
Okay, off to Portland now for the big “This American Wife” live show at the Bridgetown Comedy Festival!…

Here’s @gentscum episode 14 with @roryscovel. Dunno why it’s not posted yet in audio form. I think our producer @pmelt is getting donut holes or some shit and hasn’t uploaded it yet. Tweet him and tell him to post it. Srsly.
Also, I just want to add that Rory is one of my favorite guests so far. Dude is quality. Go see him record his CD April 5 and 6 in San Francisco if you’re in the area. I promise. And I fucking know I have Tumblr readers in SF because of the Giants comments I get. So go see Rory at the Punch Line next week.
I should warn you that we do have a quite a bit of WrestleMania talk, so skip through that shit if you’re a goddamn baby about things. Other than that, enjoy.
