Last week, we concluded a special NPR podcast series, 'White Lies.' This week, we follow up with the show’s co-host, Andrew Grace, on works in progress and get a behind the scenes account of the making of the series. And we’ll hear a captivating work of prose by Sundial Writers Corner contributor and Huntsville Literary Association Young Writers Contest winner, Calvin Engstrom. WLRH's Katy Ganaway hosts this week, with Brett Tannehill producing.
