Over the weekend, I finally set up a podcast interview with one of the first 8th grade students that I taught at Hyatts and his name is Cole Alverson.  Cole was one of the Eagle News stars, before I even thought about handing out awards for the work kids did in class.

How this came about started with me finding a hard drive that had not worked in a couple of years in my school closet.  On a whim, I used a different cord to see if it would work....and it did!!!  So I started immediately copying every file that was on the drive.  Towards the end of the copying, one file stood apart from the rest.  It was called "Hyatts PDA."  As soon as I saw it, I knew it was Cole, tiny Cole talking with the wireless mic, with two very tall girls flanking him as he introduced Public Displays of Affection at Hyatts.

I was right and from there, I recorded some of the video on my phone and sent it to Cole via Facebook Messenger.  He responded and we set up this interview.  It's not the best quality, but the stories are very much of quality.

Enjoy this interview....I did and I look forward to treating Cole to some lunch if and when he comes back to central Ohio to visit his grandmother.
