What's this got to do with a car guy posts? I just love Mike's shows. He shows what it takes to build bridges, fix stuff, etc.
the first year of Rowes podcast "the way I heard it" were really good too.
ReplyDeleteadvertised as the only podcast for the curious mind with a short attention span. which made them perfect for me.
they were a kind of reboot of the old Paul Harvey "rest of the story"
Rowe is a all round great guy
Exactly, I've been a fan of his since 2002 or so when Dirty Jobs started on tv. I've posted a lot about what he's done, or who he's worked with, or featured https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/search?q=rowe
DeleteAnd even bought and read that nice book, That's the Way I Heard It, and oh heck yes, I've been a fan of Paul Harvey since the early 80s when I'd listen to the News With Paul Harvey and the Rest Of The Story, with my grandpa.
I even found, and bought, and enjoyed Paul's early book, Remember These Things, a 1953 book.
Of course I have a couple of the Rest Of The Story books...
Paul, or his son for him, put out quite a few books!
