  • Hail Lord Steve

    I found this podcast in 2007 as I started training for my first marathon. I was a regular listener for many years. I thought production ended years ago but just rediscovered it. Now in my 60s, I am training for a half. And stumbled upon the podcast. Looks like I have a lot of catching up.

  • What happened Steve?

This podcast has gotten my thru tough times and was such a joy! Steve and I corresponded several times. I told him of how I listed to it while flying out of a hurricane during a rescue mission. I even asked him for Latin help with an upcoming tattoo 😂. I always wanted to meet in person and run together. Unfortunately, that never... more
