Come From Away ft. John Cullen

The struggle continues in the third episode of OS as we attempt
to bridge the America/Canada cultural divide in a conversation as
wide-ranging as the breadth of the interior between Vancouver and
St. Johns! Our guest is our new friend John Cullen, a Canadian,
comedian and co-host of the Blocked Party podcast, which is by
some metrics actually a more famous podcast than Our Struggle.
John has done his homework for this episode and raises the
salient question: Is Karl Ove Knausgaard actually just a tedious
asshole? We talk about that for a while but also get into some
cool discussions about Newfy culture, employee discounts at
sporting goods stores, and soliciting Knausgaard on Cameo. Thank
you to John for guesting and no thank you to Drew as usual!


 


The article discussed is "My Saga," a travelogue KOK wrote for
the New York Times magazine in 2015.


 


Lauren messed up and lost the last part of the recording where
John plugs his new album. For those interested, the name of his
album is LONG STORIES FOR NO REASON and you can find it on iTunes
and Spotify. You can also follow John on Twitter @cullenthecomic.
Do it!!
