Celebrating independent bookstore week, Special Topics in Media host Garret Castleberry sits down with indie book store aficionado, universal book lover, and nonfiction author J Hall to discuss the release of his newest book College Unpacked: A Practical Guide to Choosing, Preparing For, and Excelling in College. The book provides a user-friendly guide to the increasingly complex process of applying to colleges and universities.
This conversation was presented to a live audience commemorating the release of College Unpacked, and the book talk was hosted by the fine folks at Literati Press in the Paseo Arts District just north of downtown Oklahoma City.
In addition to College Unpacked, J Hall also hosts the Okie Bookcast, a podcast dedicated to connecting readers to their next great read.
Host: Garret Castleberry, J Hall (Guest)
Producers: Garret Castleberry, Will McMurry (Audio Engineer), Alli Garner (Cover Art), Austin Foster (Music)
