Excellent piece by Anthony Bourdain with thoughts on Harvey Pekar. The Cleveland/Pekar/American Splendor episode of No Reservations was excellent, altho I was a bit suprised that Bourdain singled it out as his fave episode they've ever done. I have not read enough of Pekar's work over the years. I should correct that. Speaking of Bourdain, here's he is being interviewed by Jay Rayner. I've read middling reviews of Medium Raw but I'm sure I'll get around to reading it eventually. Bourdain's coming back to the area this fall, but we'll probably skip that. Altho his talk that we saw at DPAC was a lot of fun I kinda don't feel the need to see him again in another big fancy concert hall. If it was gonna be a different format or something, I'd be more interested.
