Episode 74: Lee Matthew Goldberg: It’s not often you meet a writer who wrote a four season television show as a middle school student, but author Lee Matthew Goldberg did just that. In other words: He knew he was going to write from very early. Goldberg stopped by the Bunker to talk about his new book, The Ancestor, growing up in New York City, and (gasp) not enjoying Mister Rogers as a kid! (We’re not holding that against him, good people.)
