Novelist/Environmental Activist, Stephen Markley talked about the coming environmental disaster and other laugh out loud subjects.  Stephen thinks there’s hope but mostly it’s by applying pressure to big business and government which sounded hard to Jay.  We also talked about writing for ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING  (Jay and Stephen shared stories about working with Steve Martin and Dan Fogelman), writing a 900 page book which also sounded hard. (Stephen loves writing. Jay would rather nap.) We also talked about why he has no relationship and it may have to do with spending all his time writing 900 page novels. And Stephen’s new book of short stories which I assume aren’t about romance.

Bio: He is the author of 'Ohio' and most recently 'The Deluge,' which Stephen King called "a modern classic. More terrifying than The Stand. Because it's real." Weirdly, Markley also wrote for the Hulu show Only Murders in the Building.
