Coming up this week on The Bob Edwards Show, it’s the producers calling the shots. We’ll hear some of the staff’s favorites, including Bob’s conversations with director David Lynch, actors Michael Caine and Kenneth Branagh, writer Tim Winton and eccentric record collector Joe Bussard.
In September, we’re back with all new shows. You’ll hear Bob’s visit with record producer Jim Dickinson at Dicinkson’s recording studio in Mississippi. He’s worked with an incredibly diverse roster of musicians from The Replacements to Ry Cooder to the North Mississippi Allstars. You’ll also hear Bob’s conversation with one of America’s most powerful novelists, Philip Roth. They’ll talk about his new book Indignation as well as Roth’s entire body of work, including his Pulitizer Prize winning novel, American Pastoral. And, of course, Bob continues his Monday morning conversations with columnist David Broder. David will join Bob on September 8th to catch up on the presidential race and the rest of the world’s news.
And don’t forget to check out the links on the left side of the page. There you’ll find photos of Bob and his guests, links to some of our documentaries and our Bob Edwards Weekend podcast.
As always, feel free to drop us a line and let us know how we’re doing. You can reach the show at [email protected]

You should also mention that you’ve been releasing extra previously-aired Bob Edwards Weekend programs to the podcast that newer listeners might have missed and long-time listeners will want to hear again (the Jack Kerouac-themed hour with John Leland and Joyce Johnson is a personal favorite).
