    In this episode of The Rouge Draft, Kelly and Loyd spend some time with special guest, Joe Crowe. Joe is a talented writer, editor, comedian, sci-fi geek, and professional wrestling connoisseur, as well as a long-time friend of Kelly and Loyd.

    In the wordplay segment, Kelly discusses the word “blithe” and why it should be more common while Loyd gripes about “badonkadonk"” not being a playable word in the New York TImes spelling bee. And, as always, they share their reading recommendations.

  • Are Music Lyrics Literature?
    Feb 17 2025

    WE'RE BACK! After a lengthy hiatus, Kelly Rogers Flynt and Loyd McIntosh are back with a new episode of The Rough Draft. With the recent release of the new Bob Dylan biopic "A Complete Unknown," Kelly and Loyd thought it would be fun to discuss song lyrics in order to answer a serious question: are song lyrics literature.

    Also, in the Word Play segment, Loyd and Kelly discuss how to use the word "actually" without sounding like a pompous know-it-all, and, of course, we give our reading recommendations. We promise not to take 4 months off ever again!
