Jerry Stahl on Gonzo Neurotic, Success, and Failure

Writer Jerry Stahl joins Jeremy to talk about his new book, Gonzo Neurotic, a collection of work spanning decades of journalism, profiles, and cultural misadventures.

Jerry talks about revisiting his younger self, getting people off script, interviewing everyone from Mickey Rourke to Samuel L. Jackson, and what years of rejection, success, and failure have taught him about making a creative life work.

They also get into meeting your heroes, getting fired from Twin Peaks, comparing yourself to more successful friends, Marc Maron’s jeans, Larry David, Thom Yorke, and the records Jerry never gets tired of.
