This week’s guest is Kelly Stocker. Kimya likes to call her the most famous not famous person in Austin as she is connected to nearly everybody--seriously ask someone in your life if they know Kelly. She honed this title when she was the Austin community manager of Yelp, and now she’s a gal who does a bit of this and a bit of that. And she’s also a DJ on a local radio station KGSR which is where we’re recording from right now and she writes for the local branch of Culturemap. Oh, and she has a funny and informative newsletter called the Friday Five that you should all subscribe to.

OKCupid’s Arrow Feb 17, 2017

Show notes

Our guest today is writer and adventurer Clara Bensen. You may recognize Clara’s story even if her name doesn’t ring a bell. In 2013, her whirlwind story of romance and travel, which she published on Salon.com, went insanely viral. It’s your typical story of girl meets boy via OkCupid, and then a few weeks later girl and boy hop on a plane to Turkey with no suitcases. She turned her story into a book called No Baggage, which is also being made into a movie. She’s still with her boo, Jeff Wilson, and they work together at Kasita a micro-housing company, and she’s currently working on a novel, which she goes into more detail about on this episode.
