About this episode
This episode digs into a key concept of waste and the philosophy of Georges Bataille that Zak Podmore uses to define waste. The authors that have influenced his writing and given him insight into challenging topics are explored to include Charles Bowden and Ed Abbey. Zak talks about the process of writing this book and the mentors that supported him: Amy Irvine, Craig Childs, Mark Sundeen. Zak also explains the power of his Mom's life on his life, and then simply enough, uses his own adventures to weave all of this knowledge and wisdom into some fresh perspectives on the pressing layers of life that recirculate through generations. Zak is writing and publishing this book in the beginning of his 3rd decade and he approaches it with frank humbleness and clarity.
