You'd think that radio was around long enough that someone would have coined a word for staring into space.

I didnt have any particular talent for fiction. I took a class in college.

I think good radio often uses the techniques of fiction: characters, scenes, a big urgent emotional question. And as in the best fiction, tone counts for a lot.

I seen a pig so big it’d block out the sun.

I dont go looking for stories with the idea of wrongness in my head, no. But the fact is, a lot of great stories hinge on people being wrong.

I cannot stress enough that the answer to a lot of your life's questions is often in someone else's face. Try putting your iPhones down every once in a while and look at people's faces.

The most important possible thing you can do is do a lot of work.
