The View From Nathan's Bus

More NPR, plus Expanded Bookstore List

7/2/2019

Real quick– I've got a few upcoming stories I'm particularly excited to share, including a four-part series covering an event that turned out rather differently than I expected. Stay tuned.

Radio

For now, I invite you to tune in to KUOW once again, tomorrow (Wednesday the 3rd) at noon!! You'll hear me on The Record then with what are hopefully some interesting tidbits both factual and anecdotal regarding who, really, rides the bus in Seattle.

Deb, Adwoa and the KUOW crew went way beyond the extra mile this time to host me. If you knew the circumstances... I'm still falling down with gratitude. Show them and their terrific station your support by tuning in! Listen to previous appearances with me and a whole lot more here.

Nathan, I ride the 49 constantly and you are absolutely my favorite driver. I heard the NPR show and I was thrilled to shout out "OH I know him!" You sounded great (you should be on the radio more often) and comprehensively knowledgeable about public transit. I was one of those kids afraid of the size of the busses, despite my Dad having worked as a parts man for 40 years for Metro.

Im picking up your book at Elliot Bay this evening and I cant wait to read it. I am half tempted to keep a copy in my bag so you can sign it for me the next time you drive my bus.

Great job, you are loved. Mike

Mike,

This makes my day. Thank you for such generous enthusiasm! Of course I'm happy to sign your book– I wonder if you snagged a copy that was already signed, in fact– I recently stopped by Elliott Bay to autograph a big batch of their stock. But more importantly, thank you for being interested!! For sharing in my happy (and okay a little nutty) perspective! See you on the 49!

Props to your Pops for 40 years of service!!
