Valentin, whom we've talked about before on TOB, joins us to share his story of growing up in Russia, living in East Germany for awhile, getting a good degree and a good job, and marrying his sweetheart, only to see Russia evolving into something else under Putin. In 2013-2014 he began formulating a plan to leave the country and eventually was able to do it.  Listen to one man's story.

Val  also, amazingly, stumped Del in a round of Stump the Buck.

Last week's episode with Frank Young, has now been downloaded in nine countries.

Joel [Episode 127] has collaborated with a photographer to write poems for her black and white nature pictures. 

Bruce Rettig [125] announced his book, Refraction, won a Gold Nautilus Award. Congrats to Bruce.
