Bob Edwards Weekend, April 13-14, 2013
HOUR ONE:
Doyle McManus, Washington columnist for the Los Angeles Times, joins Bob to discuss the latest political news.
During her time as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton logged nearly a million miles hopscotching across the globe. For about 300,000 of those miles, Kim Ghattas was along for the ride. She’s a reporter for the BBC and has written an inside account of Clinton’s time as America’s top diplomat titled The Secretary: A Journey with Hillary Clinton from Beirut to the Heart of American Power.
Then, the latest installment of our ongoing series This I Believe.
HOUR TWO:
Former wine critic and writer James Conaway’s new novel, Nose, takes readers deep into the cloistered wine world of California’s Napa Valley. Conaway is the author of The Big Easy, the nonfiction bestseller Napa: The Story of an American Eden and several other books.
Two years ago, Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan joined forces to create the band they named The Milk Carton Kids. Their music has been described as “Simon and Garfunkel with a splash of the Everly Brothers.” Pattengale and Ryan talk with Bob about their music, unusual business model (their first two albums are available for free on their web site) and their intriguing name.
