Well this 67 year old 5th grader from Spofford Pond School in Boxford (it’s Sidney Mannheim) is very impressed by all of the very talented 67 year old 5th graders from the Proctor School in neighboring Topsfield MA. Barbara G sent a text message out to high school classmates. It was pure pleasure to listen to you all.

Absolutely amazing!!
Apple Podcasts5esm241United States2 years ago - Claude Devonshire
Thankfully, Michael has not thrown out his tapes and notepads filled with anecdotes and tales about Joni Mitchell, Bill Murray, Dustin Hoffman, and so many more. It’s often a revealing snapshot of top entertainers from a few decades ago. Other episodes focus on stories from his personal life, which are often surprising and incredible. It’s a rich stew for the ears. I highly recommend you tune in.
Apple Podcasts5Mrs. GahalahachabusUnited States2 years ago After a catchy title theme song, Michael Small unboxes one by one his interview recordings and various documents he kept as a reporter/author from decades ago. His podcast partner Sally Libby tries to convince him to throw it all out, but as they are sharing (is caring), one person's "junk" is another person's treasure in this awesome podcast series!
P.S. Don't throw it out!
