Thank you for tuning in!  Welcome back!  After a summer hiatus due to my crazy schedule, we are back! 

On today's show, we will be talking about Shel Silverstein, the beloved author, songwriter, playwright, and frequent visitor to the Playboy Mansion (I'm not kidding!).  You will learn how Silverstein persevered through a tough childhood and became a revered children's author and musician.  We will also talk about his notable works and his legacy following his death in 1999.  

Toward the end of the episode, I mentioned Genevieve Wallace and how she is a very talented artist who created a brand new logo for me :)  You can check out her website here.  You can visit her Etsy store here.  And note - I was not asked to share any of these links, but she is just an awesome person and very talented so I want to tell everyone about her! If you visit my website or click here, you can check out the new logo on all kinds of merch!  Showcase your love for the podcast with some cool schwag!  From t-shirts to stickers to water bottles to duffle bags, my online store sells some cool stuff! 

I also shared information about an exciting new app called Q106.5 where you can listen to music from the '80s and '90s as well as several retro pop culture podcasts! Download the app on Apple & Android.  Pop Culture Retrospective is on there, you can listen to any episode, anytime!  Several other great podcasts are featured, too :)
