The "Heretics" Promo
August 30, 2009 15:50 - 2 minutes - 1.85 MBWanted to make sure you check out my just-completed Promo for my reading of "Heretics," by GK Chesterton, on Podiobooks.com.

Hiber-Nation 73a -- Coming Attractions (Comment line 218-234-CALL)
July 15, 2009 09:12 - 9 minutes - 8.63 MBJust wanted to give you a heads-up on my next book for the series. I'll be recording a book called "Heretics," by G.K. Chesterton. It's not a story, it's a collection of essays on religion and politics, ethics and morality, heresy and orthodoxy.

The Wolf That Changed America
March 08, 2009 03:24I wanted to point you to a video broadcast on the PBS program "Nature," called "Lobo: The Wolf That Changed America." The BBC originally did it, narrated by Richard Attenborough.

Here's a link so you can find the full show and watch it on the PBS site. (http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/the-wolf-...
