NOT JUST PRETTY PICTURES with Eric Rutherford is a podcast that celebrates the written word, the art of storytelling and the writers who write those stories.

We begin with a piece from our first guest, Ryan K. Russell, author, poet and the first openly bisexual NFL football player. 

In this episode, Eric reads his original story, “The Grief of Men.” It details growing up in Texas without a father figure, being the man of the house, dealing with the death of his best friend and learning that emotions aren’t a sign of weakness.
