    Had a fun phone conversation with Blues artist Libby Rae Watson. I happened to find her traveling Instagram @liberaetor and talked food, travel, off the beaten path, her music. This is the edited version of a conversation that felt like I was talking to a friend I hadn't caught up with in awhile.  Send a text

    B.B.King Museum -Extra Oral History

    I was doing an interview and Mrs. Delsie Davis walked in. Since my illness- pre-Covid and the podcast during covid, I came across audio, I had recorded six months before I lost memories. I have some of this trip but audio makes it sound like it was a good one. B.B. King says he has two years of his childhood he can't remember- I could not fathom but now I can. This is the beginning of the podcast taking a break.  Send a text
