About three years ago, right around the time I turned 30 years old, I picked up Josh Riebock's book Heroes and Monsters and it found me in exactly the narrative the book spoke through. I don't remember many quotable quotes, but I remember exactly how the book made me feel about myself, God, my father and life at 30 years old, which I feel is far more important than just having a nice line from a book to sling in conversation. Josh Riebock is a best-selling author, speaker and poet and consequently also very gracious to sit down with me for an hour and talk about life, the writing process, being relational vs being social and his uncanny knack to predict which character you will pick when playing Mario Kart (He got in my brain pretty deep on that one). I recorded the conversation and broke it up into two parts. I apologize in advance for the quality of the audio, that was completely my fault, but I hope you can see past that because the amount of wisdom to creative types Josh has to offer over the two part podcast is phenomenal.
