This American Life regular Davy Rothbart joins us for an evening of comical and tender stories about himself and the people he’s met through his magazine Found, which publishes found love letters, to do lists, doodles and more. His unfiltered memoir, My Heart Is an Idiot, is a hilarious, poignant look at unrequited love in the tradition of David Sedaris. Don’t miss this knee-slapping, prose-quoting, found-object ogling romp.
"Davy Rothbart has the humor and purity of heart you want and need in an observer of contemporary American life…a kind of new-styled Bill Moyers—genuine, wide-eyed and hopeful."
– Dave Eggers
