He visited the island of Hawaii, where i live, last Feb. and was very generous with his time, signing several of his books for me, whilst telling jokes and chatting about his crumby hotel....it was a rundown place, but I assured him there are some really lovely ones elsewhere on the island! I hope he will return...

Wonderful! when he mentions Magnolia and you Her - y’all, I feel this so much. It guts me when people don’t get it. And on the other hand, it warms me when people do. I read some of the comments here and I think the interviewer is just right. We’re used to highly edited and polished recordings in this world so we aren’t used to hearing a reporter asking for a word to be defined or showing emotion, and I like hearing the raw file. Those criticizing probably just want the more crafted version of interviews. I’m a reporter, and without fail when i listen to recordings of my interviews (especially the ones with people of whom I’m a fan) it is constant cringe. Compared to me, if I interviewed DS, you’re a cool cucumber.

I'm seeing him tomorrow night in now-not-so-boring Jacksonville, Florida. I "took" his Master Class. I only ever really heard of him and then read one of his books (that I'm sure I got at a second hand store years, if not decades, after publication and only because I recognized the name), Me Talk Pretty One Day. But I was, as he describes Tobias Wolfe in this incredible impromptu podcast, so glad to learn he even existed. I'd beat myself up for not having read more of him since that awakening, but, again like he says here, I don't beat myself up for stuff like that anymore. I'm just glad I'm here now. It's a wonderful prelude to seeing him. I'm glad we both still exist. And I'm especially glad we will soon be on the same literal plane!

Hi, sorry I didn’t see this before now. It was great seeing him live. Unfortunately, I don’t hear well (rock’n’roll, babyyy!), so I didn’t catch everything, and since I’m not that familiar with his work, I wouldn’t really know. I was able to ask him a question, though: “I once castigated my brother saying, Don’t you have any friends? Anyone to do fun stuff with? And he answered, All my friends are in books. Now I find myself in that same situation! YOU are my friend! Should I reconsider my former sorrow at my brother‘s condition?“ His answer was funny, saying basically, What if you meet them and they’re an asshole, lol. And then I chickened out meeting him and buying a signed book. I suck. 😉

And for most people cannot pack up and move. That's the point of being poor. You don't have any choice about the important things like where you live, what you eat or wear. You have to make do with what you can scrape together. And if you have to do that year after year it can really grind you down. And if you were disabled before you got old you cannot even get your feet on the first rung of the ladder, physically as well as metaphorically. It's so refreshing to hear someone in the public eye speaking honestly about money and how it has the potential to change a life. Instead of the usual BS pretending that it doesn't 🙄

Interesting (slightly racist) fact: During WW2, US soldiers in the Pacific were given code words to shout out to identify each other when it was dark, or immediate vision was impaired, blind corners etc. So as not to confuse friendly allies with the Japanese, one of these code words was Lilliputian. Given the Japanese's difficulty in pronouncing the letter 'L', this word would have been hard for them to copy (Rirriputian) in order to trick a US soldier into letting his guard down. Not to mention the insult of the words meaning - very small.

David sounds a little primitive when he talks about money imo but since he's being honest so I won't hold it against him.

That's nice of you! :) But yeah - I think when you're as open booky as he is you're bound to step in it a lot ... a more than fair trade !!

This interview kind of ruined David for me. He seems a snob and kind of a twit with obsessive compulsive disorder. Perhaps it’s just that he’s brutally honest, but from a place of privilege. I kind of like his obsessive compulsive side, but I wonder if he has ever been poor and happy. It is possible.

Like most self styled " progressive " liberals when you scratch the surface their aura of privileged patronising self importance is quite eye opening. Normally it's well hidden of course by carefully crafted public pronouncements. The mask slipped here.....

Although I love Davids works and can't get enough; I found this interview very tedious also ... I couldn't stick it out till the end. It came across to me as so Insecure and doubting himself constantly. by constantly changing his words mid-sentance and... well, if one listens, it's pretty obvious.. F ortunately, he has many wonderful Works, which he should stick to "reading" in public., as he is so cleaver and humorous .

Disappointed at the ageism, stereotyping and value judgement of older people. Age is more bearable with money? What's all that about! Exclamation absolutely necessary.

Yes but you should know that DS can write funny books but in real life he's a snotty, arrogant queen. Maybe even a stinkpot!!!! 😂

How is it that there were no vehicle sounds when driving around?

Let's just say David travels in style. As he should! You can see a pic of the car we were in at 3books.co/chapters/18

@@NeilPasricha1 - Thank you, Neil. I've never been in a car that makes no sound. I've travelled in a new Rolls Royce and my aunt's Lincoln Continental but they both, while very quiet, make some sound. So, it just seemed odd to me that the microphone seemed to pick up no sound at all. Perhaps your electronics are very good too. Incidentally, I really enjoyed the interview.
