Before we start, I just want to let you know what's going on with this episode.

I did two interviews last month, one with Bradley Farrell, my guest co-host and also

a past guest of the show. We're going to catch up with him. But then also I talked to a tattooer named

Zach Hunter. And as I was listening back to both of these and editing them, I found a lot of interesting

parallels and there was just a lot of stuff that kind of popped up in each but in different ways.

So this episode is weaving those two conversations together. So we'll be popping back and forth

and I think you should be able to follow it pretty easily. But I hope you enjoy it.

Okay, so thank you for joining me again for another episode of Books Closed.

I'm Andrew Stortz, and I'm here with one of last season's best guests, Bradley Farrow,

one of my favorite interviews from season two.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for having me back again.

I'm sitting on the same exact chair as I sat in last time, but we're in a different apartment now.

True.

It's a little bigger.

Hold that mic right up to your mouth.

It's a little bit more sultry.

It's definitely more sultry.

Do you mind if I drink it during it?

No, go for it.

Okay.
