In this episode we talk to wonderful Leslie Simon! Leslie is the author of Everybody Hurts: An Essential Guide To Emo Culture, Wish You Were Here: An Essential Guide To Your Favorite Music Scenes—From Punk To Indie And Everything In Between, and Geek Girls Unite: How Fangirls, Bookworms, Indie Chicks, And Other Misfits Are Taking Over The World. Her work has appeared on MTV.com, The Frisky, The AV Club, CrimeFeed.com, Huffington Post and WSJ. She is also a recovering Diet Coke addict with an unhealthy obsession for pop culture, double-duty household items and the wine glasses Olivia Pope drinks out of on Scandal.

We had an incredible time talking to Leslie about everything she has worked on, along with so many of the books she has enjoyed. This episode goes long, but hang on because Leslie was SUCH a blast to chat with, and she has a lot of wisdom.
