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 have an extra-long cold open as we discuss some good, bad, and worse news. But that’s not what takes so long. Caleb dives into his recent read of Crime and Punishment and shares what he took away from the book.
After that, we discuss the supposed downfall of contemporary fiction and the belief that nearly all modern writing is terrible (not our words). This takes us down an interesting road full of literary potholes made by snobs.
