With James

In these confused times isn't it nice to find some relief? Every week, James will try to bring some sense into this crazy world via the radio waves. Look back. Look forward. Seek the truth. Never dull. Always irreverent. Fight the good fight by just sitting back and listening.

Kick Out the James!

Pittsburgh keeps coming up for me lately. Several books I have read recently. A good friend of mine runs a Whole Foods in Pittsburgh and was recently talking with him. May need to take a road trip this summer

It's worth an exploration. I hear it's awful in the summer.

Yes. Doug Allen. He and Gary collaborated on Idiotland. On boring road trips/tours with Rubber Rodeo they would draw and create comics, etc.

that was my favorite book as a kid.
Fred White 11:10:27 AM
Loved that book. There is a Disney(?) movie version as well.
Roger Jermyn 11:11:31 AM
currently rereading the progenitor of that book "Walden" as I listen to the show
Fred White 11:11:43 AM
Kind of a "Walden" meets "Home Alone" meets "Swiss Family Robinson"
Roger Jermyn 11:12:12 AM
yes!
Allison Dick 11:12:27 AM
ug my friend texts like that. drives me nuts
Roger Jermyn 11:12:30 AM
without that annoying Culkin kid
Fred White 11:14:08 AM
There was a big tree stump behind our garage that I spent a lot of time trying to hollow out
James (host) 11:15:35 AM
The other thing I can't stand...if they ignore my few texts...that's ok...but if I don't get back to them nearly immediately....they get upset. Then also realize...they don't even read the texts sent. Communication is in the toilet. Along with sincerity. Endangered species.
Roger Jermyn 11:16:12 AM
When I was ten I had a paper route. I collected all the tossed Christmas trees along it ad dragged them home to my backyard, creating a "house" . I then collected stones and with some mud built a fireplace in the middle. My parents had a wood stove so matches were easy to get . It is amazing I didn't burn to death
Roger Jermyn 11:17:11 AM
I gave my son a copy of the book when he was old enough to read it
Allison Dick 11:17:14 AM
My friend will text back and forth with me and then disappear and never write back. I don't know if she's actually my friend anymore
James (host) 11:17:20 AM
I had a paper route too. I read that book over and over as a kid dreaming of getting away from f'd home
Allison Dick 11:17:31 AM
what was the book?

James (host) 11:20:25 AM
The Mountain premise can't fly, at least now. Who would come across a 12 year old living alone in the woods and not report to authorities?
James (host) 11:20:58 AM
I remember work.
Roger Jermyn 11:25:31 AM
work is overrated
tom siegfried 11:26:48 AM
Read that one to my son when we moved to VT...no falcons yet
James (host) 11:26:48 AM
Helps pay for stuff like food and shelter.
James (host) 11:27:51 AM
@ Tom....how often I thought of that book hiking the woods of Wolf Hill...I am now persona non grata there. Realtors don't call back.

@ Tom YES! Three place interested in sold in days. Also now a lot of contingent sales which was my problem when up there. DIdn't have cash ready to go. But now many contingent on buyer selling. It's all good...right?
James (host) 11:35:43 AM
If VT was for me it would naturally be occurring but seems out of reach.

Never don’t give up. Seems to take time/luck...we need more delightful misanthropes...
