It's In A Book

In this episode we get back on track with The Spook Who Sat By The Door by reading chapter nine. AND, from this episode forward, there will be three chapters of the book attached to each podcast. Dig it!

It’s In A Book! In this episode we take a tiny little detour along the road to the end of “The Spook Who Sat By The Door”. A strange, brilliant novel by George S. Schuyler, “Black No More” from the Harlem Renaissance sort of splashed onto my radar. My friend Aundrey and I spend the entire podcast having a long conversation about it. Of course, Chapters 7 and 8 of “TSWSBD” are linked to the podcast on our website at bfbcir.com. Check them out!

In this, another short episode, you get to eavesdrop on a phone conversation about Halloween costumes and, of course, we read chapter 5 of "The Spook Who Sat By The Door"! Scary stuff!

In this, the second episode of Season 2 of the podcast, Kristin and I have a chat--in bed. As well, we continue our ten-episode exploration of Sam Greenlee's 1969 novel, "The Spook Who Sat By The Door". Ahem. In bed. . .

In this, the first episode of Season 2 of the podcast, we interview Raleigh resident and awesome kid, Holden Rouse. As well, we begin our ten-episode exploration of Sam Greenlee's 1969 novel, "The Spook Who Sat By The Door".

This turned out to be the last episode of the old format of the show. We’ll call it the end of Season 1. The demands of family and a new job finally dictated that I could no longer produce the show.

A few years later, and we’re back as part of the BFBCR. Welcome! Look for new episodes every month! And follow us on our website at bfbcir.com!

Seasons Greetings! In this episode, I interview my friends, father and son, Geoff and Sam Harris. And Sam reads from a book he brought along--"Muddle Earth" by Paul Stewart. Then I go to a cookie party! Cookies. . !

Happy Halloween! In this episode I interview a patriot and a good American named Jarred Shewey. And I read the beginning of a book he loves--"One Second After" by William Forstchen. It's dark, post-apocalyptic stuff. Perfect for Halloween. Boo!

So, um. . . Yes way. We're still here. And this great new episode proves it. Interview: Brett Wiederkehr, Warrior-Poet. Book: "Slaughterhouse-Five", Warrior poetry from Kurt Vonnegut. So it goes. . !

It's been a while. But a talk with my neighbor, Phil Melfi was worth the wait. As well, we read, at Phil's suggestion, Edgar Allen Poe's "Message Found In A Bottle". Spooky!
