Nick has spent a good chunk of his adult life on an island off the coast of Antarctica at McMurdo Station. He’s a cool guy who is living an extraordinary life in a humble, low-key way. I’m really glad to have met him and, with any luck, we’ll be neighbors before too long!
Chris asked so many great questions and drew out a lot of information that helped me visualize the experience. Nick is such a great guest with his experiences and the way he articulates them.
Of course, it's sideways snowing in Utah while I'm listening, I had some great visuals as he's describing driving to the base for the first time.
No. I think the only film I've seen him in was River's Edge, which was crazy! Send me an email and I'll explain the book club thing. thatchrisryan at gmail.
It's been at least a decade since I read or viewed either work, but I remember the film being true to the mood and tone of the story. Plus, Crispin Glover is terrifically creepy...
I’m already freezing my balls here in the dark north. Today was -27 degrees and only 4 hours of light. I would much rather go somewhere sunny. Greetings from Finland.
What a great interview!

Hi Chris,
I love Melville’s short story- have you seen the film “Bartleby,” starring Crispin Glover? Also, how do I sign up for the book club discussions?
