On this week's episode, the SoundDiego Podcast welcomes Justine Epstein, the owner of North Park's Verbatim Books. Since opening in 2015, Verbatim has become a go-to destination for bookworms from both San Diego and out of town, as well as local authors and musicians who frequently stop in for very special in-store performances. At the time of this episode's publishing, Verbatim is still closed due to the pandemic, but will be reopening when the government makes it clear that it's safe to do so. Until you can stop in personally, head over to Verbatim-Books.com, and keep up-to-date with everything happening with the shop.Listen/subscribe to the SoundDiego Podcast on your favorite podcasting platform: Apple Podcasts | Google Play | Spotify | StitcherEpisode 13 Show Notes:We wish we could peruse the multitude of shelves at Verbatim Books and soak in the sounds from the shop's 75-hour Spotify playlist but until they open back up, listen to it here.Justine may not be totally sold on Bruce Springsteen, but after learning he wrote the music for Patti Smith's huge single "Because the Night," she might be changing her tune on "The Boss."
