The late David Foster Wallace's magnum opus, Infinite Jest, was published 20 years ago this week and left an indelible mark on the literary world. To mark the occasion, we're revisiting a conversation that Brooke had with writer David Lipsky, whose interviews with Wallace were dramatized in the 2015 film The End of The Tour. He and Brooke listen to the original tapes, made over five days on the last leg of Wallace's 1996 Infinite Jest book tour, which Lipsky later turned into a book, Although Of Course You End Up Becoming Yourself: A Road Trip with David Foster Wallace. Brooke and Lipsky discuss the delicate bond the writers formed and what it's like to hear his tapes acted out by Jesse Eisenberg (Lipsky) and Jason Segal (Wallace).
