The Wolves of K Street Podcast

Authors Brody and Luke Mullins take viewers through their best-selling book, The Wolves of K Street, breaking down key characters, events and themes. Whether you are new to the book or a repeat reader, this is the perfect podcast to take you behind-the-scenes to the making of the book and the development of its players, personalities and storylines. In the first episode, Luke and I breakdown the opening scene of the book on the exclusive grounds of the Robert Trent Jones golf course outside of Washington, D.C., just days before the course was set to host the nationally televised Tiger Woods charity PGA tournament. We paint the chilling scene for the audience – and discuss how we decided to open the book with a dead body on a golf course, how we dug up all the unforgettable details – the “DO NOT RESUSITATE” sign – and reveal other behind-the-scenes secrets from our reporting.
