Meet
Our Hosts

Caleb James K.

Caleb James K. is the former Editor-in-Chief of the literary journal, Drunken Pen Writing, and the host of the DPW Podcast. He’s also a fiction writer, poet, and aspiring novelist.

Spencer Church

A former aspiring comic book artist, Spencer is the cohost of the DPW Podcast as well as a short story writer and avid reader.

We start the episode with some harmless Dragon Ball talk. After that, we continue the civil conversation with a fresh look at our writing habits: We discuss the importance of setting, hooking the reader early, establishing characters, and creating atmosphere.

Once we exhaust the civil conversation, we get into the meat and potatoes of the stew and discuss inclusive language in writing. This includes a list of words you used to be able to say but are now considered outdated and what you should use instead. This of course digresses into our opinions of inclusive language. And boy howdy do we give our opinions!

DBS #133: Men Describing Women Cringe – Drunken Pen Writing Podcast

We kick today's episode off by giving our take on the Super Bowl and its halftime show. After that, we rage out about intrusive advertisements. This goes on for too long, and right as our madness reaches its peak, we settle down and read a list of the cringiest lines about women written by idiot men. Dumb fact: today's featured thumbnail image (or regular image if you're seeing this on social media) has been made by the AI slop feature that comes with our WordPress subscription. This is how it interpreted the episode title. TRASH! Imagine how nice it would be if we could ditch the AI crap for a cheaper subscription. Perhaps that will be an upcoming episode topic.
