This is the reason we keep making new episodes on Fort Worth Roots. Conversations like this are what we hunt for. The incredibly imaginative local author, film maker, educator, and friend Mark A. Nobles joins us today. He was kind enough to give us time to record with him and pick his brain about two of his works of art. We discuss " Fort Worth's Rock and Roll Roots" and "We're For Smoke", two historically heavy pieces of literary art that focus on the city that we love so much.  Mark thank you so much for being part of the Fort Worth Roots Podcast!!
