On this episode we were joined by Phil Christman, author of Midwest Futures. Our conversation delved into the book and general concept of the fabled midwest. From colonization to climate change and everything, we roamed the rusty, but not forgotten, political landscape in search of answers.

You can buy Phil's book, Midwest Futures, from Belt Publishing or wherever fine books are sold.

Phil also helps with the Prison Creative Arts Projects. If you're interested in helping edit the work of prisoners, reach out to him. You can find Phil on Twitter @phil_christman and at his website, philipchristman.com.
