  • Hey, before we get started with this episode,

  • I wanted to let folks know about some upcoming appearances in the Midwest and New York City.

  • I'm doing four Midwestern book events in May, one on Monday the 12th.

  • I will be in Minneapolis at Moon Palace Books.

  • On the 13th, I will be in the Cincinnati area right over the border in Irlander,

  • Kentucky at the Central Library.

  • On the 14th, the Golden Hour Books in Indianapolis.

  • And then on the 15th in Chicago at City Lit Books.

  • And in June, on June 13th.

  • I will be doing a special one time only live show at the Tribeca Audio Festival.

  • It's going to be based around my audiobook and it's going to include performances from two of its readers,

  • Carrie Coon and Lily Taylor.

  • I'm super excited about this.

  • Find links to those events at thememorypalace.us slash event.

  • And if you are interested in coming to the New York or Chicago events,

  • you might want to act quickly on those because spots are limited.

  • This is the Memory Palace.

  • I'm Nate Dimaio, a postcard from the road out of Montgomery, Alabama, spring 2025.

  • I didn't know a thing about Sophie Bibb until I googled her
