A Sooner State

There are manifold reasons to consider Oklahoma some kind of shithole or another, and you know what they are. I do too.

But even so, I’ve had some surprisingly good times here every once in a while.

Today I covered 800 miles and the last few got me to OKC. During the day I listened to Fresh Air, and I heard one interview, with a musician, the guy who fronts Stephen Colbert’s band.

Then I heard another, on a show I’ve never listened to before, called On Being.

This is it.

It’s after midnight and I don’t have the energy left to tell you my thoughts, but I’ll try tomorrow, the second 800 mile day, or the day after that, when I am free, and paid, at liberty somewhere in the Midwest.
