Season Finale and Updates

Season Finale and Updates

That's a wrap! The first season of the Burly Flow Podcast is in the books. But what's on the horizon?

Fathers and Sons

“So, tell me perr-fessor,” Leland Potter said, shifting over to the stool next to mine. “What’s the deal with this Hemingway guy?” “Big topic, Hemingway.” “It’s a long afternoon.” Leland calls me professor because he’s heard I worked at a university. Also, and probably more importantly, I’m not a local, so he presumes that if I’m not actually a professor, I’m at least smart enough to be one. That holds true for every outsider, by the way. Unless they’re from Iowa.

Empty Hanger

Part of our fascination with Nickel Ross' age came from the fact that he was even still around. Nobody crashes an airplane five times over the course of a life. At least nobody who makes it to 83. But that’s just what he did. Shot down twice in WWII. Busted a nose wheel in Korea. Clipped a wire during his crop dusting days out west. Then lost an engine on takeoff in the 80s “just to remember what it felt like.” Five crashes. Eighty-three years old.

Saturday Morning Rain

The rain had fallen most of the night and showed no signs of letting up now that it was morning, leaving us all a rainy Saturday to figure out what to do with. You know the kind of day I’m talking about. For some, it’s a movie day. For some, a go back to bed day. For others, it’s a clean out the closet and eat ice cream day. For just about everyone, it’s a stay at home if you can day … except me.

The Trouble with the Moon

“I figured the outing would provide a good balance,” Joey said. “A chance for me to take charge as well as be supportive. You know — the full spectrum of Joey Garnavillo in one dark night.” “Can you have a spectrum in the dark?” I asked. “Oh, you absolutely can’t,” he replied.
