from the Gazette Review: "American singer-songwriter Sawyer Fredericks came to the public’s attention after winning the eighth season of the NBC singing competition, The Voice. Born in Connecticut, he grew up in a New York farm surrounded by music. As such, singing was something that he naturally fell into at a young age. Later enrolling himself in voice lessons, he began performing at various events- from open mics to Local Farmer’s Markets at the age of twelve. Gradually pouring more time and effort into his hobby and passion, Fredericks eventually released his own independent LP entitled, Out My Window by the time he was fourteen. From there, he was scouted by talent agents from NBC’s award-winning series The Voice, who invited him to audition for the popular reality TV show. After gaining approval from all four of the judges, Fredericks found himself striving toward fame in the competition. Despite being the youngest contestant, he ultimately proved himself to be a worthy contender."

"As a young person I was obsessive and deeply melancholy," Claire Dederer told me in this interview about her memoir "Love and Trouble: A Midlife Reckoning." "I was a moron," I said. We laughed. We've grown up on the sexual adventures of males in American Literature, and now Dederer boldly goes there, from a female perspective - - to her own lustful teenage self, to her sobbing, yearning midlife self, and she's candid, funny, and generous in her storytelling. She discovers "the twinning of midlife sexuality and adolescent sexuality," and is interested in "complications and reversals." I could have talked to her for hours. She's the real deal. I was happy to have the opportunity to celebrate her book. Com share your comments here: https://www.facebook.com/BinnieKleinPodcasts/
