This episode of other people is brought to you by Harper Paperback's, publisher of a new novel called Father Mucker by Greg Oliar.

Father Mucker is about a father. It's about a day in the life of a father. It's about a crazy day in the life of a father.

Raves Jess Walter, a National Book Award finalist and author of the financial lives of the poets, quote,

Father Mucker is all kinds of funny, raucously, wickedly, sweetly, sussily, surprisingly,

profanely funny.

Oliar has written a wonderful novel, capturing in a single manic day, the helpless ache of

parenthood and the ceaseless flood of popular culture, end quote.

Father Mucker by Greg O'Lear. Say it with me now. Father Mucker. It's available from Harper

Paperbacks, wherever books are sold. Go and get it. It's a book. Oh my God.

You are not alone. You have found other people.

You and I have a friend in common.

Every stupid thing that a writer could do I've done.

I think it's really beautiful.

Jesus, they did it well. I struggle, you know?

It was incredible. You know, it's like your head exploded, seeing what was really there. And now here's your host, Brad Listy. Just one person at just one time. Right, right. All right, here we go again. This is it. This is other people. Thank you for being here. I'm Brad Listy. And we've got a great show for you today. Greg Oliar is the guest. Not only is

his publisher, the sponsor of this show, but he's the guest of the show. He basically

owns this program. He's got a new novel coming out called Fathermucker. We're going to talk

all about it. But before we get there, I want to discuss a couple of things. First of all, the normal plugs,

the website for the show, www. www. other peoplepod.com, all news and info, right there. The Twitter,

you can follow us on the Twitter at Other PeoplePod, and we also have a Facebook presence.

The show has its own Facebook presence. Friend us there, like us there,

whatever it is that you do at Facebook. I got a book in the mail the other day, speaking of books.
