Sue sits down with Mishka after reading two of his seven books to talk about life, ultra running, big ideas and have a down to earth conversation. A bit about Mishka, his memoir, and his long history with addiction and getting sober cold turkey. Mishka Shubaly received the Dean's Fellowship at Columbia University for graduate study in Fiction. His six Kindle Singles for Amazon have all been bestsellers. His first full-length memoir, "I Swear I'll Make It Up to You: a life on the low road" was published in 2016 by PublicAffairs. He teaches writing at the Yale Writers Conference. Mishka is the voice in his 6 audio books, kindle singles and we highly recommend you check them out! Real, raw, skillful writing pulls you into the heart of many human emotions and the layered human experience.

After receiving an expensive MFA in Fiction from Columbia University, Mishka Shubaly promptly realized he was more interested in playing music in dive bars than writing. He lived out of a Toyota minivan for a year, touring non-stop, and shared the stage with artists like The Strokes, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and The Decemberists among others. He’s become a cult favorite, opening nationally for comedy iconoclast Doug Stanhope, penning the soundtrack for The Unbookables documentary, and headlining the Altercation Punk Comedy Tour. Adrian Grenier played drums for a new single and Shubaly’s most recent record “Coward’s Path” has won praise from Johnny Depp and Joe Perry.
Even in the heart of envisioning gut wrenching scenes from his books, I caught myself laughing out loud alone as I read along. Perfectly capturing the heart of suffering with tell it like it is kinda voice.
Enjoy this Ep. Sue loved sitting down with Mishka for an hour to just dive right in.
