Title: Talking with Chuck Mindenhall

Host: Cem Kayatekin, Assistant Professor at IE School of Architecture and Design, inquiring into topics critical to urbanism.

Guest: Chuck Mindenhall, columnist at The Athletic, and co-host of The Man and the MITH.

Discussing: The legacy of storytelling and the fight game; comfort zones and the base, raw edge; subconscious processing and the craft of writing; the contemporary pace of content creation; the editor-writer relationship and the influence of content quantity and speed; the world of journalism/publication, the dying breed, and the middle ground; levity, benevolence, and watching from the hillside; the blank page, trust, and shifting gears; A.J. Liebling, and the capacities of the humorist; getting out of the details, and flowing with the momentum of a piece; the columnist, the investigative journalist, and the pursuit of the sublime.
