Open Mic Readers:
Initially drawn in by the Fried Wisconsin Cheese Curds on Someday Bar’s menu, Matt was excited to read at his first ever #OpenMic, and he was prepared to buy the audience’s forgiveness and applause in the form of said cheese curds.
Matt’s favorite childhood book: Revolutionary Road. That seemed mature to us, we commented. He responded that he must have a broad definition of childhood, looked back further, and offered: “Are You My Mother?” by P.D. Eastman.
