EP. 59 — Timothy Simons, Rob Corddry

Nate’s brother Rob Corddry reads Ken Kesey’s story about the death of his son which leads into Nate’s conversation with this week’s guest Timothy Simons of HBO’s Veep. Tim and Nate chat about the inevitable Grateful Dead phase, reading Stephen King books in 7th grade, and the ins & outs of Veep. Then, Tim reads an outrageously hilarious piece by Maura Quint entitled “How To Negotiate A Raise (If You’re A Woman).” Pick up a copy of next month’s book, “Geek Love” by Katherine Dunn!
