Agreed with Jason's comment above; I too think that a "series" like this is in order.

On a side note, in the upper left corner of the video (I guess what would be on Caleb's right side) I couldn't help but notice a scribble of what looked a lot like "Eet sh!t" If that's indeed what I saw, even better.

Indeed. I thought about spot-shadowing it at some point, but didn't want to steal even more attention away from our author. The irony of something being hand-lettered on top of a typewriter, and then misspelled, is just too great.

Found my copy in the mail yesterday-- looks great. Love the design. Also, it's a unique experience reading a book and alternately huffing the packaging it came in.

Will no doubt have much to say on the content in the coming days.

I didn't notice the Eet Shit until after the interview was over. Not that I would have moved; I think it's funny. I was just so taken in by the space. The Newsroom is a damn cool bar. Typewriters all over the walls. I want to move into that bar.

my copy arrived yesterday as well. i love it; the feel and look of a chapbook and the smell of a...well, it smelled like how i remember my grandfather. very cool. part that and part taking me back to the days of scratch-and-sniff stickers. the fact that i'm saying that about a book, yeah, that's awesome.

I've had a couple people comment that the book smells like their grandfather. Pretty cool, actually.

I hope you enjoy the read.
