Download MP3On this episode of The Gala Show, Gala travels to Old Town Pasadena to meet with author Duane Swierczynski (California Bear, Lush, Revolver) to talk about the concept of "place". Duane shares with Gala the origin story for his place fixation, how he does his research to uncover Los Angeles mysteries, and the methodology of creating titles for his stories — but first, a question about what book inspired him to become an author.
