“I don’t know how you do it, I can’t always see where you’re going, but you really make the most of these interviews.
As a border guy ( Calais, Me./ St. Stephen, N. B.) I can appreciate the intimate sense of sitting across a kitchen table and conversing. Thank you, WD”

“My only complaint is that I wish the Tony Rice episode had been given an explicit rating or had some beeps over all the f-bombs, so I hadn’t shared it with my dad, who’s a Baptist minister.”
