We’re happy to present the very first episode of Mixtape, Barrelhouse’s monthly podcast on the independent literary scene. Each month, we’ll talk to writers, editors, publishers, artists, pretty much whoever will talk to us about what’s happening in indie lit. Like This American Life, but without all the high production values and famous writers with interestingly whiny voices.

Our first episode focuses on Baltimore. As any John Waters fan knows, when things happen in Baltimore, they often happen in wonderfully eccentric ways. This month we’re talking with writer Michael Kimball about his project “Michael Kimball Writes Your Life Story on a Postcard,” and publishing genius and proprietor of Publishing Genius Press Adam Robinson.

Mixtape is Barrelhouse’s monthly podcast on the indie lit scene. It’s just like This American Life, but without all the high production values and famous authors with interestingly whiny voices.
Our first episode focuses on Baltimore, and features interviews with publishing genius and head of Publishing Genius Adam Robinson, as well as Michael Kimball and Smartish Pace’s Stephen Reichert.
Mixtape will launch in mid/late September. We’ll let you know when it’s here.
