Bob Garfield made his second appearance on the program back in 2003. He
came out to the station and did a live interview during our membership
campaign. What a brave fellow. He's also a very funny guy, one of the
most humorous guests ever. During this program he explained how he
became a leading critic of advertising. He was once a very familiar
voice on public radio. I miss him.

The Book Nook on WYSO is presented by the Greene County Public Library with additional support from Washington-Centerville Public LibraryClark County Public LibraryDayton Metro LibraryWright Memorial Public Library, and Tipp City Public.
