It’s 1976. It’s raining. It’s a Saturday. Your siblings don’t want to play with you. You’ve already seen that episode of The Monkees sixty times. You go to the closet. You’ve never felt so alone. You have but one choice.

This week, @leegoldberg.bsky.social and I are doing an event for the Friends of the Palm Desert Library. The last time we did this -- 2014 -- we met one of the greatest men to ever walk this earth and cook a steak: Stuart Anderson aka The Black Angus. It was like seeing the face of charbroiled god.
