E164 features 4-time guest of @topshelfmerrick, author James Wade! His gripping novel, HOLLOW OUT THE DARK, is a dark Depression-era gothic crime thriller wrapped in a whiskey war. Edge-of-your-seat stuff. We pack a lot into this one, so listen here: bit.ly/43p8qH3

Listen. I get it: You're out in the sun, enjoying summer's multitude of joys including melanoma, listening to French concertina music on your Grundig shortwave radio. But reading still is the No. 1 destination vacation! And unlike the sun, it doesn't burn (unless you NEED it to)

For most of us, so much of who we are is little different from who we first were. #SundaySentence from What About the Bodies by Ken Jaworowski. Just started this gem and got pulled right in.
