Pub Date is a podcast dedicated to the love of books, and the authors who bring them into the world! In today’s episode, Copper Director of Communications, Alex Hudgens, sits down with author and comedian– Dustin Nickerson! His new book ‘How To Be Married (To Melissa): A Hilarious Guide to a Happier, One-of-a-Kind Marriage’ has launched into the world, and it’s the funny, heartwarming, practical relationship help that so many of us have been looking for!
Through stories of his specific, one-of-a-kind marriage to Melissa, Dustin shares relationship ‘advice’ with the world in a refreshing, show-not-tell, non-advice kind of way. The reality is, relationships are all unique; Dustin’s idea that one size does not fit all when it comes to advice around family, finances, faith, and more is demonstrated in his commitment to just telling his family’s story, and letting the reader glean anything helpful on their own. Through reading the ins and outs of Dustin and Melissa’s relationship, you just might improve your own.

This episode is for you if you’re looking for a refreshing take on marriage/relationship books, or if you’re looking for a laugh! Dustin’s humor will make your day, and his down-to-earth attitude about relationships will probably have you saying, “This guy gets it.” Dustin shares his journey of becoming an author, diving into his career journey overall– including the highs and lows of making a living as a stand-up comedian. So if you’re an aspiring author, an aspiring comedian, or perhaps both– this is the episode for you.
