Talking today with people about stories on the road, on the page, and in the songs we hear. Thanks to listener Gary Nelson who wrote these words about how Bob Seger always made him think of one special road trip with his father:

"I remember first hearing Bob Seger and night moves in 1976 in the spring when my dad and I drove down to Arkansas from Chicago. It was a 10 hour drive and I talked my dad into listening to WLS - the only station our 1971 Monte Carlo could get that I enjoyed. That old AM radio station played the song no less than 10 times.
My dad, puffing on his cigar said, 'It's about time we heard this song again.'
No matter how old I get, I'll remember that trip and being alone with my dad for an extended time after my parents were divorced. That's what Bob Seger Night Moves makes me think about."

Shared a little from Hear No Evil by Matthew Paul Turner.

And some great writing advice from none other than Kurt Vonnegut on Writing With Style.

More great stories, great music, and a great day hanging out with you on the radio.
