New York Times bestselling author, J. Ryan Stradal, spoke to me about the unsurpassed passive aggressiveness of Midwesterners, writing about the restaurant industry during the pandemic, and his latest novel SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE LAKESIDE SUPPER CLUB. J. Ryan Stradal is the award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of Kitchens of the Great Midwest and national bestseller The Lager Queen of Minnesota, named one of the year's best books by NPR, USA Today, Booklist, and many others. His latest novel is Saturday Night at the Lakeside Supper Club, described as “... a sharp and poignant tale of a couple from two different restaurant families in rural Minnesota – one has inherited her grandparents' old-fashioned supper club, and the other is heir to a chain of homestyle diners (known for putting those supper clubs out of business).” The book was named An Amazon Best Book of April 2023. New York Times bestselling author Roxane Gay said of the novel, “This is a perfect book.” And in a starred review, Kirkus called it, “A loving ode to supper clubs, the Midwest, and the people there who try their best to make life worth living.” J. Ryan Stradal has also worked extensively in TV, story editing and producing shows for VH-1, MTV, ABC, FOX, TLC, A&E, Discovery, and History. Working primarily for Original Productions from 2008 to 2014, he was the senior story producer on “Deadliest Catch” and “Ice Road Truckers” and a supervising producer on "Storage Wars," and “Storage Wars: Texas.” [Discover The Writer Files Extra: Get 'The Writer Files' Podcast Delivered Straight to Your Inbox at writerfiles.fm] [If you're a fan of The Writer Files, please click FOLLOW to automatically see new interviews.

Bestselling author J. Ryan Stradal discusses his newest novel, a family drama called The Lager Queen of Minnesota. It depicts how midwestern values, hard work, fate and some world-class beer helped a group of women succeed in a man’s world of beermaking. Our host Ann Bocock sits down with J. Ryan Stradal to talk about the strong resilient women in his life and how his mother is a source of inspiration for his books. He also explains the misrepresentation of the Midwest in media and his goal to accurately portray his hometown. While doing research for his novel, Stradal toured through Midwestern breweries and talks about the female brewmasters he met along the way. In addition to his family drama, Stradal wrote Kitchens of the Great Midwest and discusses the unifying role of food in his books. Get all the details on this week’s episode of GO Between the Covers!

It starts with the unequal distribution of inheritance through the sale of a family farm. It ends with two sisters and a granddaughter finding peace in their passion for brewing beer. The women in this story are devoted to their craft, although not always to each other. Their journey will resonate with families of any background in any part of the world. Beer lovers will appreciate the attention to detail author J. Ryan Stradal brings to this novel, in which he pays tribute to his native Minnesota from his adopted home of Los Angeles. His ingrained love for family and tradition is gently blended with humor and a deep understanding of the grieving process. In “The Lager Queen of Minnesota,” Stradal has developed a story that draws us in and reminds us of what is truly important. What comes through in this interview, as in his writing, is Stradal’s appreciation of his roots. Blood is thicker than water, and apparently, so is beer.

In today’s spoiler-free mini-episode, I (Kaytee) am chatting with J. Ryan Stradal, author of The Lager Queen of Minnesota (his new release) and Kitchens of the Great Midwest (his previous release that I loved!). This minisode is full of midwest charm and belly laughs. I hope you love it. In this “minisode”, Kaytee and J. Ryan are talking about beer, and family, and Minnesota, and middle-class America. We talk about mentors and the writing life, and which pies are our favorites. We’re also getting a little bit silly regarding the “research” required to write a really good book about beer.
