EPISODE 30 // In this episode we convene another Book Club! This week: Kate presents Shel Silverstein's THE MISSING PIECE (1976), a children's picture book. Just how do we translate a picture book to the podcast medium? You will have to listen to find out. We then listen to Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue" (1969), which was written by Shel Silverstein, in a special Songs of Sadness Corner.

 

Plugs this week: the new Citi Bike stations in Prospect Heights (Hao), Sideway Stories from Wayside High (Louis Sachar, 1978), a new "Ka Boom Boom" catchphrase (Jack), Gardening at the Dragon's Gate (Wendy Johnson, 2008), Night in the Woods (Kate).
