About this listen
Rural fantasy, writing life, and the strange tale of 1982’s hidden encounter.
Welcome aboard #dkLa! Pirate Radio for the first part of a truly mind-bending conversation with Bob McGough—author of the beloved Jubal County Saga, podcaster behind the Tales by Bob Podcast Network, and a game designer who brings worlds to life.
But this isn’t just a chat about writing craft. Today, Bob shares the beginning of a story he’s kept close to his chest for decades: a secret alien abduction in 1982—a bizarre event that would shape his creative journey, outlook on reality, and the stories he tells.
Along the way, we dive into:
🔹 The rise of ‘Rural’ Urban Fantasy in Southern fiction
🔹 What it takes to build and sustain an indie writing career
🔹 How childhood mysteries shape lifelong creativity
🔹 Why Bob’s work resonates with dreamers, skeptics, and storytellers alike
And yes—one of Bob’s books will soon be featured at Layeh’s Bookshelf Book Club!
This episode will make you question what’s real, what’s imagined, and where the two collide.
