Summary: Steve Almond is the author of Candyfreak (named a Best Book of 2004 by Booksense, Amazon.com, Time Out and Library Journal), My Life in Heavy Metal, The Evil B.B. Chow, and Which Brings Me to You, co-written with Julianna Baggott. The San Francisco Chronicle described Almond’s language as "rendered in precise strokes with metaphors so original and spot-on that they read like epiphanies." In (NOT THAT YOU ASKED), Almond gives us a provocative, universally offending, and wickedly entertaining collection of essays that explore the moral dilemmas of our age - tackling topics such as chest waxing, Kurt Vonnegut, ham at Chanukah, Oprah’s Book Club, homoerotic nature of professional sports, reality television, and much more. Contains some adult language. Recorded on October 11, 2007.
