What Seems Untrue May Be True
This is Linda Allen, a radio reader in Amarillo offering my thoughts on a unique true story titled Everything Sad is Untrue. Author Daniel Nayeri’s given name was Khousrou before he landed in the US and became known as Daniel, the simplification undergone by many immigrants over time to make their names more American and create a new identity.

Daniel’s Perfect Storm
Hello from Goodwell, Oklahoma! I’m Marjory Hall with a BookByte for the Radio Reader’s Series. One component of the American Dream is choosing one’s home in the location of one’s choice. If the youthful narrator of Daniel Nayeri’s book Everything Sad Is Untrue was permitted to make this choice, I suspect he would have chosen to remain in Iran, in the comfortable home of his earliest childhood.

High Plains Outdoors: Catfishing
Earlier this week, Luke had the pleasure to visit with Ryan Fergus, manager and head honcho at Wind Point Park www.windpointpark.com on beautiful Lake Tawakoni located about an hour east of Dallas. Ryan gave :Luke a tour of the awesome 200 acre park that included cabins, RV hookups short term and long term, great fishing piers, boat launches and boat storage. The list goes on and on. Luke describes the park as one of the very best with the best amenities of any he has visited. A highlight of Luke's visit was a visit with 87 year old Charles Glasscock who has been fishing the point long before the modern day campground existed. Charles is an expert bank fisherman and during a set down interview on a park bench, he shared some of his catfish catching tips with Luke. As a veteran outdoor writer for almost 4 decades, Luke says the real highlight of his career is getting to meet new friends like Glasscock and Ferguson. Expect to hear much more about this awesome destination in upcoming shows. Listen to Luke's podcast "Catfish Radio with Luke Clayton and Friend" wherever podcast are found.
