O Dark 30 show

Summary: It's the first day of summer, so say goodbye to those springtime 97 degree temperatures of yesterday and embrace the summertime 97 degree temperatures of today. And, if you feel like it, listen to this podcast, too. We've got a handful of bite-size pieces for you today, starting with Portrait of an Educator: M.Scott Tatum produced right here at KUT by young Savannah Breckenridge of the Ann Richards School. Wonderful. Then we'll move on to a conversation with author Tim O'Brien and KUT alum Graham Shelby. Graham's a great dude and we're always happy to get an audio visit from him. Tim O'Brien also seems like a pretty good guy, but we don't know him personally. We'll follow up this piece with the Tim O'Brien - inspired The Things They Carry. And then we'll have had enough of Tim O'Brien, good guy or not. We'll move on to another friend-of-the-show, Austin's own Spike Gillespie. What's on Spike's cranky mind? Tune in and find out!
