Beautifully written stories that come from everyone's life, both as adults and as children. A must read for a light and enjoyable evening.

This collection of columns by syndicated columnist Terry Marotta reminds us of the humor and drama in everyday life, and that nothing is so important as laughter, love, and family. Marotta has a gift for the one-liner and for the big picture. It made me wish I was a member of the Marotta household. I eagerly await the next collection.

This is a refreshing way to spend your time listening to some of the best interviews from the show. I like the show but sometimes don't have time to catch it on NPR. This audio set gives me lots of the memorable interviews I've heard or partially heard over the years. It's a great collection of some of the folks who are major influences in their work. The inquisitive and probing questions of Terry Gross really open up conversations with the likes of Tracy Ullman and Dennis Franz, they sound like us. These are wonderful snippets of real life.
