Se trata del primer ministro de la ciudad
For so many years now our tradition has been to go for a long drive in the country on Sunday while listening to Writers and Company …. I’ve been listening since the very first shows …. Please some how make all the old episodes available? My fav was that Francine du Plessy Grey show …. Will miss you Elenor
So happy these Eleanor Wachtel “reruns” are available! Eleanor is the best interviewer on the air in North America. She’s so knowledgeable because she really does her homework. She’s respectful of the guest; she never makes the interview about her, never talks over the person she’s interviewing or tries to use the show as a platform to show off. Eleanor is, in a word, stellar.
The way Eleanor Wachtel interviews people is a thing of quiet beauty. When Writers and Co comes on the car radio, I stay in the car longer just to listen. Then I find the episode in podcast form to re-listen. She has a way of drawing out writers, and you can tell that they enjoy talking to her - so much so that they often drop in unexpected nuggets, which is wonderful for listeners! A podcast to treasure.
I only just found out that they will not be any more new shows of writers and company, where the most literate woman in Canada will lead us through novels and authors, so that we may enrich are the lives! You have accompanied me in so many trips to the store, to pick up children, to deliver gifts to friends, to spend an afternoon in my backyard weeding. I thank you very much for all your incredible research and inviting interviews. more
