Ben Fountain: Rules of Special Measures
Manage episode 268053538 series 2763738
What if instead of dropping off our stereos, cocktail sets and coffee tables, all those sleek white vans that sneak through our streets took our possessions away? You might call them "Recovery Operations," imagines Ben Fountain, the award-winning author of Billy Flynn's Long Halftime Walk, and most recently, Beautiful Country Burn Again. In a time of national crisis, isn't giving up your 800-thread-count sheets in the name of shared sacrifice the least you can do?
Narrated by Edoardo Ballerini. Hosted by Ashley C. Ford.
