Episode 316: Joe Hagan

Joe Hagan is a correspondent at Vanity Fair and the author of Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine. “It’s the story that begins with John Lennon on the cover of Rolling Stone in 1967 and ends with Donald Trump in the White House. In many ways the book takes you there, I wanted it to. It takes you through the culture as it metastasizes into what it is now. It had a lot to do with a sense of the age of narcissism. The worship of celebrity. Jann was very into celebrity, and worshipful of it and glorifying it and turning it into a thing and eventually celebrity displaces a lot of the ideas they originally started with in my estimation. That was a narrative thread that I began to pull in the book.” Thanks to MailChimp, Skagen, Screen Dive, Stoner, and Pitt Writers for sponsoring this week's episode. @joehagansays Hagan on Longform [09:45] "Blues Cruise" (New York • Dec 2012) [09:50] "Shipping Out" (David Foster Wallace • Harper's • Jan 1996) [11:10] Among the Thugs (Bill Buford • Vintage • 1993) [16:25] "An Incorrect Artifact With Aging Fans" (New York Times • Oct 2000) [22:10] "The Long, Lawless Ride of Sheriff Joe Arpaio" (Rolling Stone • Aug 2012) [25:45] "Tenacious G" (New York • Jul 2009) [33:35] Positively 4th Street: The Lives and Times of Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Mimi Baez Fariña, and Richard Fariña (David Hajdu • Picador • 2011) [42:20] Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream (Hunter S.
