Scarlet vs the Canadian Table of (Mal)Contents

We're continuing our special summer series today, where each of the co-hosts jumps into the hot seat to introduce him or herself to our listeners! This time? It's my (Aaron's) turn. But there's a twist! One of us had internet problems because he was on the beach or something. So Scarlet got stuck asking me the hard questions and cringing at some of my answers. Listen in to hear:


The epic tale of where I come from and why I started this podcast in the first place
One of the first books I remember loving
The difference between genres and mediums
Some of my favorite books and a dramatic reading from one of them
The author whose work I cannot stand
What my pen name should be


Audience participation time: After every episode in this miniseries, we want you to recommend some fun (and totally appropriate) pen names for each of us. We'll share our favorites at the end of the series (if y'all participate). Share them with us on on Twitter and Instagram at @MalContentsPod.
