We open today’s episode with news about our good friend Nicolás Obregón and his newest novel, The Sugar Man.

After that, we sit back and discuss the greatest writers in history and where they fall on our tier list as storytellers. Believe it or not, some of the best writers are actually terrible at telling stories. You might be surprised by who tops the list and who gets a bad rating.
