Charles Graeber “Sucking In” Ep. 185

HWYW Book Club! HWYW Book Club! Welcome back to HWYW Book Club. CHARLES GRAEBER is this week’s guest. He wrote the fabulous True Crime book THE GOOD NURSE, and he’s here to tell Julie about the banality of evil, and how bureaucratic failure is scarier than a lone psychopath, how sex stuff can make murderers confess, why his book was originally called THE PRESSURE SUIT, and how, to the man who killed around 400 people, the story could be best described as a “dark comedy.”

Plus: Finally appreciating PIPPIN, and how it’s about choosing disappointment over death; a nosy dog named Ringo; Bridget Everett as Iggy Pop; and the return of Spoony’s BORED-walk Empirezzzzz recaps!
