The Mischke Roadshow: Episode 81 (pt.1)  / Austin Texas

After a 22-year talk-radio career, TD Mischke escapes his soundproof booth and hits the road in search of adventure, eccentrics, whimsy and insights.  Instead of bringing life into the radio studio, he decides to head out and meet it on its own terms, letting the gypsy call guide him.  The Mischke Roadshow features podcasts, videos, writing, and photography.  Find it all at www.mischkeroadshow.com  @tommymischke on Twitter.
