- Cormac McCarthy on Why Literature is Dead
Cormac McCarthy believed that science was much more important than literature. I will provide clips and passages from McCarthy exploring this idea in this video. We will then deep dive into the big questions about ethics in science, the decline of the humanities, and how humans 10,000 years from now will view Shakespeare!

- How Cormac McCarthy Influenced David Foster Wallace
David Foster Wallace is a massive fan of Cormac McCarthy! In this video, I will explain how Wallace copied the style in Suttrees opening, Wallace's favorite book by McCarthy, how Wallace became obsessed (and had to make a creative break) with McCarthy, and a bunch of other fun stuff from the David Foster Wallace archive. If you are ever in Austin, the McCarthy and Wallace archives are within 25 minutes of each other!
