I was 3 in 1950. And I loved the radio.
For one thing, you can get old, fat, bald and nobody knows and nobody cares. So there's great longevity in radio, more security there.
I met (Franklin) Roosevelt once on the back of a train,
If you walk in and say that we want you to hire ex-felons ... the answer is probably 'no,' ... But when you get them here and they are seeing them face-to-face, they're seeing them as human beings. And that breaks it down, and some real positive things can happen.
You can't find a decent place to live around here, and finding work isn't easy either.
