Howdy Reader! I’ve gotta say… I did NOT expect the responses I got from that last email. Seriously. I asked about your “wait… what?!” story, and you delivered. I heard from: Someone in a Blues Brothers cover band A lawyer/magician who opened for some pretty incredible acts And a bunch more that made me stop and go, “Okay, that’s awesome…” And that was just scratching the surface of what people wanted to share. There are a LOT of interesting people on this list. (Yes… that includes you.) Which...
