Bullseye: Daniel Handler, Nico Muhly and the Sklar Brothers

 Daniel Handler delves into his memories of young love and high school frustrations to pen the novel Why We Broke Up -- the twist? He writes the girl's side of the story.  Nico Muhly is a classical composer who's worked with a wide range of musicians, from high-profile composer Philip Glass, to Icelandic singer-songwriter Bjork to indie rockers Grizzly Bear.  Jason and Randy Sklar, known collectively as the Sklar Brothers, are comedians best known for their ESPN show Cheap Seats.  And they're all on this week's Bullseye with Jesse Thorn, Sunday at 4pm.
