This podcast is a retirement project and maybe ... for the listener steeped in the controversies of modern culture and dire news reports ... something different. An eclectic collection of texts, chosen only for two reasons: I encountered them at some stage in my life and they endured for me, continuing to challenge me or delight me or, most often, doing both.

You won't find audio book perfection here. I am most decidedly not a 'voice' professional. I am just a lover of ideas, both bright and dark, of stories, and of how the well-written word married with the human voice can touch us.
