Next Episode (DWH 3.5) THIS WEEK - Brandon Taylor

Join us Friday April 7 at 7pm (ET) to talk about the History and Fiction, Video Games, and More

Drinking with Historians returns! Join your hosts Matt Gabriele (Virginia Tech) and Varsha Venkatsubramanian (UC-Berkeley) as they chat over drinks with historians about movies, music, and maybe even some history. Like Drunk History but with historians and (perhaps) a bit less drunk and a bit more history.

This upcoming episode, we’ll be talking with Brandon Taylor (writer, editor, and essayist) about how history informs his fiction, his path to being a writer, good video games you should be playing, and much more.
