Why Starting a Publishing House is Punk. Plus, E-Scooter Safety and Listener Mailbag

Today on the podcast, it’s all about books! Jane is joined by Diana Le, writer and publisher at Girl Noise Press, and Katie Lee Ellison, author and founder of Nonfiction for No Reason, to talk about starting your own local publishing house, the realities of the book industry right now, and what they are reading or looking forward to this fall. Katie’s profile of Diana and Girl Noise Press will be available in CHUM in October. Then, City Cast Seattle’s Head Honcho/Executive Producer Ashley Smith and old man/Creative Producer Liam Billingham join to do a Monday mailbag. Topics discussed: The magnificence of Saars Super Saver Foods, the dangers of e-scooters, and feedback on a recent episode with District 5 City Council Candidates Nilu Jenks and Julie Kang.  Learn more about the sponsors of this September 21st episode: Seattle Restored Northwest Film Forum Want to get in touch?
