Pi/e/a/ce it Together

Happy Easter and Welcome, Spring! This podcast contains a few seemingly disparate elements, tying terrorist attacks and my 9-11 story to this week's newsletter on guilt and grief entitled: "The G Spots (*Rated G)" I also take you on a belated adventure to the Shilin Night Market from my Christmas in Taipei, Taiwan. And of course...the Nomad Tip of the Pod: Don't Ever Panic! Thanks again to Ben of Ben Sounds for his entertaining royalty-free music. http://www.bensound.com...

Once again, without her knowledge (bad daughter), I began recording after I realized this was material was potential comedic genius. Stay tuned for the next episode in the works where Linda (knowingly) adds her two cents about our trips to the doctor and the DMV. Th...
