672. – Jonathan Lethem

Jonathan Lethem is a writer from New York who is currently living in Southern California. His newest book, Cellophane Bricks, is out now. We spoke with him from his house in Maine about three shower days, tomato sandwiches, he just drove from Los Angeles to Maine, the best molé in Utah, early tech media, dropping out of Bennington College, when a reference dies, the infinite jukebox, a new kind of superhero, how he sleeps on planes, AI is the most boring way to cheat, and how he knows he’s having fun writing.
