Author and journalist @wordbobby.bsky.social joins us on Friday Morning Coffee next week. Worth revisiting our first interview with the author. "Truth, if spoken courageously, will, in the end, win out." Listen: www.writersbone.com/podcastsarch...

RIP to an American hero. What a career in space. His book that the film "Apollo 13" is based on is essential reading. As is Jeffery Kluger's Apollo 8: www.writersbone.com/podcastsarch...
