links Today's Fresh Links: Head Like a Kite, Black Joe Lewis and OTEP

Todd Snider talks to AV Club his writing style and subjects.

AVC: How true are your stories?
TS: I think people would be really surprised by how much of it was true, and also maybe surprised by the parts that aren’t true—they’d be confused as to why anyone would do that. Sometimes I’ll put a lie in there strictly for philosophical reasons, and sometimes to make the story shorter.
