b'Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!!\\nWe\'re back with another story, three more crimes (one of them a lie), and a whole lot of juvenile banter.\\nThis week is March\'s "True Crimes and a Lie," but it is also our first story from one of the great American writers, Herman Melville.\\xa0 This story was specially selected by Heather for Ken to read specifically because of its title, "The Lightning-Rod Man."\\xa0 It is a wild ride with a couple of dramatic characters and a shocking number of jokes about the male reproductive organ.\\xa0 Or maybe that\'s just our hosts reading something into it that wasn\'t there.\\nRegardless, it is a fantastic story, and along the way our hosts discuss the Great White Dick, green glass balls, and...yeah, it really is mostly euphemisms.\\xa0 Though there is also a surprising amount of geography.\\n"The Lightning-Rod Man" was first published in Putnam\'s Monthly Magazine, August 1854, and despite being one of Melville\'s lesser known stories is a literary gem.\\nKevin from The Jury Room\\xa0guest as he tries his hand at "True Crimes and a Lie."\\xa0 He\'s a great guest, but more importantly a great host of his own podcast, so check him out at JuryRoomPodcast.com\\xa0\\nSo sit back, light a fire (or even a candle), grab a drink, and enjoy.'
