An interview with best-selling author Daniel Brown concerning his book, now a movie, The Boys in the Boat. This interview is ten years old but has fresh relevance given that the book is once again a best-seller, thanks to Clooney's film. In this interview Daniel shares the story of how this inspiring saga found him and how he was deeply moved by the then old men who told him, in intimate interviews, about their magical win at the 1936 Olympics, and the incredible bonds that took them there.

Part Two of our conversation with Lindsay Powell, an expert on classical Roman history and co-author of a book about Julius Caesar, as well as a solo author of a book about his successor, Caesar Augustus. In this episode we talk about the events that led up to the assassination of Caesar and the general incompetence of the assassins in preparing for the power vacuum that would follow. They did not anticipate the chaos of Rome without Caesar, nor did they realize that the majority of Romans would not see them as liberators, but rather, as traitors Support the show…

Adam Shepherd arrived by bus at midnight in Charleston , SC, with only $25.00 in his pocket. He gave himself one year to pull himself up by his bootstraps. Relying only on his high school diploma and with no skilled labor background to claim, he had to rise up out of homelessness, get himself an apartment, furnish it, buy a car and put 2500 dollars in savings as a safety net, all within one year. This the story of how he tried to do this. Support the show…
