Erik Jensen is an award-winning journalist, biographer, screenwriter and poet. He is the founding editor of The Saturday Paper and editor-in-chief of Schwartz Media. He's written a bunch of incredible books and it's very likely he spells "friend" correctly in all of them. On today's episode, Erik talks about struggling to make friends as a child, Nan School, being almost exclusively friends with older ladies, making friends with people from magazines, cold-calling people out of the phone book, losing a dear friend, writing letters, and an unforgettable story about "cooking your emotions".
