David, a listener from KQED, writes… “Last Sunday (3/21) my wife and I were doing minor surgery on one of our chickens to treat what our internet research had determined was “bumblefoot”, which is a localized deep tissue infection on a chicken’s foot due to a retained foreign body, dirt impaction, etc. We had […]
Anne, who hears us on KUOW, writes… “I want you to know that your programme not only gives me hope but reassures me that moving to the US was still a good idea! I love the wit of the contestants and look forward to this – oh so brief – half hour of delight and […]
Jane and Frank, loyal podcast listeners, write to us… “We’ve attended 2 of your live performances here in Port Townsend.

Dale, who hears us from WLRH , writes…. “I love your show. I listened on WPLN for several years, until WLRH began carrying you. I have some puzzle suggestions for you. The attached file is a scan of a book that is famous at WLRH. Beginning in 1987, Judy and Harry Watters began THE Saturday […]
