Cadillac Man has been homeless on the streets of New York City for the past 16 years. Over that time he has recorded facts of his daily life in notebooks—those notebooks have been distilled into a memoir, Land of the Lost Souls. We’ll also be joined by Will Blythe an editor at Esquire who first published Cadillac Man’s writings.

wish you everything good in your life, God bless you, and keep the books coming
What happened with the 19 year old girl Wagner befriended and then began a sexual relationship with?
I still remember that Esquire piece and have sent the link for it to several friends.
I'm really looking forward to hearing "the Cadillac Man" and Will Blythe on the show today.
