Conversations From GodKnowsWhere #6: Tim Hall

With Jason Michel

Tim Hall is not cool, okay?

If you want cool, go and read a book about a drug addict lying in his own vomit, or someone being blown by a giant crab.

Mr Hall has just written a non-fiction book. Yes, that’s right, big ears, you heard correctly. A non-fiction book. The book is entitled, “How America Died”. It may just be important. But it is definitely not cool.

We had a very uncool chat together …

When I had the original idea for this series of conversations/interviews, Pat asked me if I wanted to publish it here. On OW!. So, he’s to blame. Okay. He then suggested that I interview his brother, David, too. Apparently, David has done his fair share of travelling and experiencing life. I said, why not do them together. He said, cool. So, here we are. Remember, it’s all his fault.
Ladies & Germs, I give you, The King Brothers.

JM – So, Baltimore.
WTF do I know about Baltimore?…
