Okay, everybody, welcome to the program.

This is the other people show, and I'm Brad Listy.

I'm here in Los Angeles.

Thanks for being here.

Hope you're okay out there, wherever you happen to be.

Don't forget to subscribe to this show wherever you listen. You can also

subscribe on YouTube and you can follow me on Instagram and Blue Sky. Today is Sunday, so it is time

for another Character Studies episode. Character Studies are conversations with ordinary human

beings. It's me interviewing civilians who appear on this show anonymously, and we talk about their

lives.

So I've got a good one for you.

It's coming up in just a couple of minutes.

Today's episode is brought to you by Mary Sue Rootie Books, publisher of the debut

novel, Tilt by Emma Patti.

Emma Patti is going to be my guest on this show on Tuesday.

Tilt is the official April pick of the Other People Book Club.

That is my book club.

You can sign up for it over at other ppl.com.

And it is a gripping and unsettling novel. It's intense. It's a page turner, a propulsive debut,

a primal scream of a novel about the disappointments and desires we all carry and what each of us will do for the people we love. Once again, the book is called Tilt, the debut novel by Emma Patti, available from Mary Sue Rucci Books.

So I do a weekly email newsletter.
