DR. Ian De Jong
Ian De Jong has recently discovered that nearly a decade of higher education (BA, MA, PhD) left without anything remotely resembling a personality. He does, however, know perhaps too much about books, particularly old ones. He enjoys long walks in the desert, long walks in the Sierra Nevada, long walks on the shores of Lake Tahoe, and cocktails. He never met a joke he couldn’t ruin, and he frequently has big thoughts about culture, history, and literature. Ian lives in Reno, with a wife and some chickens, all of whom are far more successful and accomplished than he is.
Joe Holschuh
Joe is shockingly unqualified to contribute to society in most ways. He’s pretty good with this whole English thing, though. He has a degree in writing, another one in teaching, and starts each day with a cup of coffee and a crossword with his out-of-his-league wife. He likes reading books, walking his dog, and--in his spare time--tries to beat his personal best 2k time on his rowing machine.
Nick Argires
Nick Argires is 5’7” 140 lbs with dark hair and eyes. In addition to the wealth he has gained from podcasting, he is also a full time photographer and director born and raised in film industry’s heartland: Milwaukee, Wisconsin. A husband, father, and owner of two rental income properties, Nick’s long and winding successful career is only matched by his captivating handsomeness and ability to write his own bio.
