Why You Want What Other People Want (with Luke Burgis)

Hello everybody and welcome to the Radical Sabbatical. The rest of the radical cantor team is taking a sabbatical, including me. The thing I love more to do more than anything else is to read great books. And recently I read The one and the 99 by Luke Burgess and we are lucky to be in conversation here today.

Welcome, Luke. Thanks so much, Kim. It's good to be with you. I my first contact with you came, maybe the audience should know, we share the same amazing editor, Tim. Yeah, shout out to Tim Bartlett who is.

Shout out to Tim who who is uh humble, great at his job, but he's not a poster, doesn't post a lot, and uh I happen to see on his Instagram a photo of Tim and you in some idyllic like cabin uh editing one of your books. And I I called Tim and I was like, Tim, where do we get to the part of the editing process where we're sitting in a place together going through my book? And he's like, well, that was a bit of a special situation. Well, you know, I have this, uh, I have this she shed in the backyard, which you all are welcome to use.
