After nearly two months of radio silence—and a string of mysterious postcards from far-flung places—Selso sat alone in the studio, sipping lukewarm coffee and eyeing the dusty co-host mic. Then, right as the intro music for the next episode faded out… the door creaked open.
In walked Moose.
With a sun-weathered bucket hat, a vintage windbreaker, and a grin only slightly wider than his accent, Moose declared: "Alright partner. I’ve seen the world, I’ve heard the stories, and I’ve fixed a payphone with a paperclip and three words of Swahili. Let’s hit record."
Turns out Moose had been in Uganda—not for the gram, not for the drama—but on a noble quest to restore the last functioning pay telephone in the country. The village of Nakibanga had held onto the phone since the 1980s, and when it croaked out its last dial tone, they called the only man who’d once fixed a soundboard with chewing gum during SXSW: Moose.
He rewired circuits, bartered with tech-savvy goats (allegedly), and even trained a local bird to mimic the ringtone as backup. And when the handset finally buzzed to life, the entire town lined up to make calls to relatives they hadn’t spoken to in years.
Now back in Texas, Moose wasn’t just bringing tales—he brought that rare energy only found in people who’ve lived a few extra stories. As he leaned toward the mic, his voice was deeper, wiser, still unmistakably Moose.
"Selso, this podcast is more than interviews and hot takes. It’s where the echoes of stories find a new home. Let's get to it."
